ShortTakes meets on January 8, 2019. Please note that the venue is new to us. We will meet at Twin Oaks Library, 1800 S 5th St 78704. (Just off Mary between S Lamar and S 1st) Bring your morning coffee and any package snack to share. 
 
It’s a brand new year and a good time to do a little “self cleaning". The topic for this month is From Clutter to Clarity —TED talk on Youtube by Kerry Thomas. We will watch and discuss the video and consider ways to reduce our clutter. If we each bring a grocery bag sized of "physical clutter", we will make sure that "the jewels" gets to donation sites. This library accepts used book donations, so this is a good time to bring those books that are just gathering dust.

"Clutter is not just stuff. Clutter can be physical, digital, mental, emotional or spiritual, and each type can be overwhelming. Clutter is a “postponed decision” so let’s focus on the number one cause of clutter in any area of your life, and how to bust through for lasting results."
