What do you say when you have nothing to say at all? Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious, of course! (for those of you unfamiliar with Mary Poppins, the Disney Classic, that is where the reference comes from). Honestly, with everything that has been going on lately, I’m having difficulty focusing on one thing long enough to get anything done. I’m sure you have all been through similar times in your life.

However, three years ago, it wasn’t really even on the radar. I was working on several other projects and Mik was on the shelf.

I haven’t missed an episode of Get […]
