The first two weeks out of the tank…
The first two weeks back home were PURE CHAOS. Lack of sleep, getting caught up with family, figuring out our action plan, getting the right equipment to live stream, setting up the equipment, doing commissions, setting up our shop (sorry for the drama, btw). Even though there was a lot going on, we still got a lot done! Our live streams are going really good now and the shop is working out nicely.
We’ve basically been in a weird crash-course, figure-it-out-as-we-go kind of learning mode. Setting up streaming equipment (thank you Big Sis), figuring out what we actually need (thank you, Chat!), testing setups, fixing mistakes, and then redoing everything again. It’s been messy, but we got through it!
At the same time, we’ve been working on the merch store because you guys showed up for us in a way we’ll never forget. Every design, every drop, every idea… it’s all being built with you in mind. We want it be exactly what you want, while also providing you with high quality art and designs. So, feel free to reach out if you have any requests!
And then there’s the planning (which is where we are now)! Streaming, content, weekly drops, future ideas, it’s all starting to take shape. It’s exciting, but also a little overwhelming in the best way. We’ve never been the type to use planners, “per se”, but we do now! And once we get a schedule in place that works for us, it will make everything much more manageable!
But there’s one thing we didn’t expect to hit us this hard…We missed our Fishtank family SO MUCH! When you’re in the tank, it becomes your whole world. The people, the chaos, the weird little moments you don’t think twice about while you’re there but suddenly it’s all over. And it leaves this quiet space that’s hard to explain. The viewers felt it too, right? At least we’ve found a way to stay connected. Getting on live streams with everyone has honestly been a huge relief because sometimes just chatting with them helps us to feel better.
We’re figuring it out. In real time. With you!
And through all the chaos, one thing has stayed the same:
We’re really happy to be home and to be starting a new chapter in our lives. It’s only going to get better, and we hope you stick around and see what kind of tomfoolery we get up to next!
Thank you SO MUCH for sticking with us through the tank, and now through whatever this turns into. It’s already getting better, and we have lots of surprise for you coming soon!
Peace,
Bingo & Bongo
