In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, this post is for those still looking for their special someone. Sometimes it can feel like you’re in a rut, seeing the same people, doing the same things, dating the same type of person over and over and over – but you can break the cycle. Meet new people by stepping out of your safety zone and into the social network of lifeknot.com.

Unlike other dating services that ask just superficial questions about yourself, lifeknot asks what you like to do. They believe that to make a good match, you have to live your life and let love follow. In other words, don’t try to conform to the likes of someone else – be yourself and allow people to come into your life who like to live life like you do.

People connect be looking for others who share the same passions and do the enjoy the same activities as they do. It just makes sense that if you actually have something in common, you’re more likely to hit it off. Even if it doesn’t turn into a romantic relationship, you haven’t lost when you’ve made new friends.

I got my tax refund today so I decided to use a little to update my Quicken program. Apparently, after a few years they stop allowing you to use the old program to download your financial info which is pretty much the only thing we use it for. So I plopped down the $40 to update it into a sleek new red ‘Q’ on my Start menu.

But that’s not the best part. The best part is that I got a free version of Quicken WillMaker at the same time and I’ve now written my will (how morbid). It’s surprisingly easy when all you have to do is click ‘give it all to my kids’ here or ‘don’t give it all to my kids’ there. Now I just have to print it out, sign it, witness it, have it notarized, notify people ….. Maybe this is why no one writes their will in a timely fashion – all the add ons.
