Help!

My name is Kevin and I am a Legoholic.

I don't know what has come over me. I'm spending way too much on Lego! In
the last 2 months, I have spent over 4000$ on the little plastic bricks. I
have accumulated more parts than I can ever use. And forget about ever
sorting them even if I could live to be 150!

Boxes are piled in the basement, the bedroom and the living room. Sets are
displayed on shelves, the kitchen table, in the cupboards and in drawers!
Furniture is completely buried. We lost the dog under some boxes for a few
hours the other day.

Those darned holiday sales are to blame! This one is always better than the
first one. One store trying to beat the other store. 20, 30, 50% off!! When
will it all end??! Heeeeeeeeeeeeelllllppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm happy for you...
However, a person can NEVER have too many bricks!
The more bricks = the more freedom to create.

But, perhaps if you do become inundated with surplus bricks or sets, try
donating them to a worthy cause. (no, not an AFOL)  To a charity that
provides gifts to impoverished children in need. Christmas is the time for
giving, and since you can obviously afford to envelope yourself in this
luxury, then you may also be able to help out some less fortunate children.
You can give them the same happiness that Lego brings you!


  I remain,
