Making the leap

Sports analysts talk about the leap. The moment when an athlete transcends their abilities and moves from being good to being great. Or a ballplayer finds that they'll have to up their skill level in order to compete at the next level.

Well with a dozen sets in nearly every major playtheme set to arrive at the Bender household in the next week, it looks like the time to make the leap is approaching. A bigger brick collection means it is time to expect more from myself as a builder.

It is also time to improve my element knowledge and organizational system. It's a bit early for New Year's pledges, but add those to the list.
