Speaker: Hilda Rodgers, From Overwhelmed to Organized.
Decluttering can feel overwhelming, especially when a home holds years of memories, belongings, and "I might need that someday" items.
In this practical and lighthearted session, a professional organizing expert will share simple ways to get started, make decisions with less stress, and create a home that feels calmer and easier to manage.
You'll learn:
* How to decide what to keep, sell, donate, pack, or let go.
* Simple strategies to make sorting feel more manageable and less emotional.
* How decluttering can make your home feel safer, calmer, and easier to live in.
You'll hear from an expert speaker who knows the subject inside and out, and come away with practical ideas you can put to use right away.
Beyond the learning, it's a chance to connect with a friendly community of people who share your interests - and with door prizes and snacks on offer, there's a little something for everyone. We'd love to see you there.

The following Stroke Prevention Tips come from Dr. Mohammad Al Darawsha MD, Wellness Bay Health, May 8, 2025.
"Strokes can happen quickly but many are preventable with the right steps.
What Is a Stroke? A stroke happens when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, causing brain cells to die due to lack of oxygen.
Types of Stroke:
* Ischemic Stroke (~ 87% of cases) - Caused by a blood clot or blockage in an artery to the brain.
* Hemorrhagic Stroke - Caused by a ruptured blood vessel in the brain, leading to bleeding.
* Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) - "Mini-stroke" - A temporary blockage that resolves on its own but serves as a critical warning of a possible future stroke.
What Causes Strokes? Many strokes result from underlying health conditions or lifestyle habits that damage your blood vessels over time:
* High blood pressure (the biggest risk factor)
* High cholesterol
* Smoking
* Diabetes
* Obesity
* Atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat)
* Sedentary lifestyle
* Excess alcohol intake
* Uncontrolled stress.
Stroke Warning Signs (Use the "BE FAST" Acronym)
If you or someone around you shows these signs, call 911 immediately:
* Balance loss
* Eye changes (blurred/double vision)
* Face drooping
* Arm weakness
* Speech difficulty.
* Time to call for help! Fast action saves brain function - and lives.
How to Prevent a Stroke - Naturally & Medically:
Lifestyle-Based Prevention:
