I Want To Be Energetic and Healthy

I live in beautiful Seattle Washington. After spending 40 years of my adult life working with children, mine and many others in my home and then as director of a not-for-profit childcare center, in 1997 I decided to test my creativity with a gift basket business.

I was always interested in fitness and good health for my family and myself … I exercised with Jack Lalane regularly …  some of you might remember him! I also belonged to a Yoga group that met on Saturdays and I cooked good nutritious meals for my family and the children I cared for.

I had bought my first computer in 1993 and used it mostly for communicating and writing until a few years later when I had a gift basket website set up for Alki Giftbasket Services. I didn’t dream then that some day I would be setting up websites myself!

All the while I needed to contact clients I had acquired and make new ones by phone and office visits… make beautiful gift basket arrangements and get them delivered … a lot of work!

As I met more and more marketers on the phone, visiting their websites (blogs were not the rage yet!) listening to them tell me all about making money with affiliate marketing or writing ebooks and small reports etc. I got hooked and I closed down my gift basket business at the end of 2006.

Although I have a marketing blog ‘Apprentice Marketer Gazette’ my passion is to write about fitness and health subjects and share everything I continue to learn about staying fit as I’m aging, so here is  ‘I Want To Be Energetic and Healthy’ !
