Summary
As always, I'm taking time off during the summer. This year, though, we're trying something new! We're sharing the audio of previous live Q&As that I did on YouTube. If you only listen to the podcast, this will be all new to you! We'll be back with our regular format mid-August.
This episode includes my answers to questions about house issues, others helping, organizing tubs, family members, books, plus much more.

| 0:14.5 | more about listening to the podcast, ad-free. Welcome to a slob comes clean, the podcast. I am Dana K. White. I share my personal deslobification |
| 0:24.0 | process. As I figure out ways to keep my own home under control, I share the truth about cleaning |
| 0:29.5 | and organizing strategies that actually work in real life for real people, people who don't love |
| 0:35.8 | cleaning and organizing. Thanks for joining me today. |
| 0:38.0 | This is podcast number 470. This is one of my summer podcasts. I'm going to call this one |
| 0:43.6 | helping others and books. I know. This is a Q&A that I recorded in the past over on YouTube, |
| 0:53.1 | live, and we are sharing the audio of it here as a podcast |
| 0:57.0 | that is part of our summer series. Normally, I don't put out podcasts in the summer, but we're |

| 1:34.9 | moving only with Christmas. We only had a few days to pack up. One of the bedrooms is my craft room. |
| 1:41.1 | I admit I have started and stopped a number of times to declutter in there and it has |
| 1:45.3 | been my Achilles heel. I am determined that when the work on the house is finished, that these |
| 1:51.3 | items I had to pack up in a hurry, no time to declutter will not all be allowed to come back in. |
| 1:57.0 | I'm thinking of bringing in only one box at a time, maybe one box per day, |
| 2:01.0 | and trying to have no mercy in my decisions of what makes the cut and what doesn't. All that to say, |
