'Overflow' refers to me having a wide variety of things I do, from writing, to daily living of a wonderful life, and art work.
I garden at 8000 feet, cook from scratch, needle felt, read books continually, study history and epistemology, write daily, contemplate spiritual theology, and pursue heirloom arts. I love to paint pictures of living beyond maintenance -- living creatively, discovering beauty in everyday ordinary things. I've been happily married to Monte, who is a geologist, for a long time and still very much in love, even after raising a family and building two houses. Our children are our best friends. Heather is newly married to Bill. Travis, a minister of the fine arts, is married to Sarah. And Dawson is in college. I naturally live first-hand and have recently realized that this is how we educated our children and ourselves. I love to learn about everything, teach, and work with my hands. I love my home, but my life has overflowed -- as a teacher, radio/conference/retreat speaker, author, and most recently as a MOPS mentor. Kareyswan.com is an ideal way for me to share my overflowing life with kindred spirits and those hungering to move beyond maintenance -- to be known by who they are, not just by what they do.

hummm like a loving Lord and best friend all in one. Some day we will know when we see him face to face.
I'm looking forward to it.
your pot holders are cute, I made those when I was a little girl. Making them in cotton or wool would be great!
Heirloom arts? My interest is piqued, what do you do?
By the way my 2 friends who received your books were quite pleased.
I'm sure it was a simple breakfast of fish . . . maybe some bread. It actually sounds really good. It kind of reminds me of The Shack when the God figure is always cooking up meals for the others. It adds great perspective to think of Jesus cooking breakfast for others.
