Houston Clutter Coaching October 2009 Meetup

Thursday, October 22, 2009
6:30–8:00 p.m.

Gayle Goddard facilitates the monthly meeting of the Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup Group. We start each meeting with a short presentation on a specific organizing-related topic. Then we open the floor to your questions, comments, stories, and suggestions.

The topic for October’s meetup will be “Getting It Gone.” We’ll talk about how to get stuff out of the house once you’ve made up your mind to let go of it. A successful organizing project has to include disposing of the stuff that’s going away, or it turns into just another form of clutter. We’ll talk about where, when, and how to make stuff go away.

We’ll also have a drawing for door prizes! (You must be present to win.)

IMPORTANT NOTE: For October only, we’ve had to schedule the meetup at a different location and move the time earlier by half an hour to accommodate the library’s hours.
