A profile? You want a profile? There's not much to say. I am a happily married mom of 6, aged 13 years down to six months. I live in the outskirts of Phoenix, AZ, but I grew up in Hawaii. I'm a stay at home mom and I own a small machine quilting business (Akamai Quilts--Akamai means 'clever' in Hawaiian.) My husband was the first SG-1 addict, and I got into it one day while sitting with him on the couch binding a quilt. He was watching a little episode called, "Window of Opportunity". I was instantly hooked. I borrowed the first seasons from one of the guys at my husband's job, then ended up going to Costco one day and buying every season available. I watched the first five seasons in just a few weeks. My husband and I now quote lines to each other (Our favorite? O'Neill to airman--"It's a "blast door'." But you gotta do it with the finger quotes.). Friends of ours who don't "get it" think we're a little weird.

This writing thing has been so much fun--I was an English Lit major in college (you can't tell, right?) and thoroughly enjoyed my creative writing classes, but had kind of forgotten that in the maelstrom that is motherhood and Real Life. So this has been a return to a real first love. And what has made it fun is sharing it with people who have enjoyed it. So, just a gentle reminder, reviews are fun and appreciated and spur on more stories.

As a side note to all of you who read and review, please know that I appreciate each and every one. I try to respond to each review--although every once in a while, one will slip past me--so if you DON'T want a response, just let me know, and I will cease and desist. I'm just trying to let you know that your efforts are truly met with gratitude, and on these anonymous forums, it's hard to get that point across sometimes. :) Having said that, I've missed some in the past several months--and I apologize for that. I'm just now crawling back into the real world after having had the baby.

For all of you who are wondering what has happened to me--I've just been slammed with REAL LIFE lately. Kids are out of school, my business has been CRAZY NUTS busy, and we're trying to get our schedule back into whack after the arrival of baby #6. So--please be patient with me! There are so many great stories whirling around in my head! I just need more hours in the day to let them out!

So I quilt on client projects much of the day. I clean and cook, and I do laundry, and put on band-aids. I take the dog out and help with homework. I change diapers. But sometimes, when the light is just right and the world is a bit slow, I gaze across the horizon and see a Ha'Tak vessel looming large. Then I pull on my SGC BDUs, grab my Zat and P-90 and go out to take on the Goa'uld.

-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O

Apparently, I've started a series. . .

Glinda Baldrich made her appearance in my Stargate universe and has just kept coming back. Because I'm not compiling these as a single story, I'll list them here in order of how they should be read.

Two Sheets (She's actually not in this story, but she is in the sequel/second chapter. . .but it's the de facto start of her arc for various reasons.)

Secretarial Pool

The Little Legume of Hope

Taken

Basket Cases

Reel Trouble (She's not in this one, either, but it fits in the arc, anyway. . .)

One Blanket

Meeting the Bean

I'm sure that she'll make more appearances, as will her new "friend". Who knew that I would have so much fun with this little old lady?
