    I'm getting kind of tired hearing "do I deserve Gracie and what not" why would'nt you? Are you a good person with the best intention and a good heart? Probably yeah! So stop telling yourself you don't deserve things in life. Non of us are perfect.We all feel like crappy,shitty and worthless people sometimes but that does'nt mean we don't deserve what makes us happy.Start telling yourself you deserve to be happy and you will be. ❤

I myself have been through hell and it has damaged me for sure, but whatever life has put us through, it is possible to learn new ways of thinking to handle the pain, the worry and the struggle. I do go dark sometimes, but I'm still trying to strive forward. Whatever happened to you Rachel, you deserve Gracie, your friends, success, happiness and so on, you dooo!!! Remember that ❤️

    Love that you saved the original barn! It’s full of character and you can maintain that history while adding your own twist to it. Lots of progress. The barn couch reminds me of how I really want a porch couch some day. When my parents upgraded their old couches they had them on their deck for a few days when I was young and I had the best time napping and reading books outside.

    I just have to say - as someone who struggles with depression and anxiety myself- this channel of yours and your videos have become such a safe space for me.. you don’t even understand! It’s peace, it’s happiness and it’s accepting yourself and be beautifully broken. And I have been watching since you build that concrete vanity in your ex boyfriends house (maybe even before that) - I never would have thought that we would be here now But I’m so glad we are. Respectfully in the best way- you are a beautiful desaster ❤ and it helps me come to terms with me not being perfect So THANK YOU ❤ I’m rooting for you to get your girl home 💯

    • @RebeccaaBagley

      Wood can be expensive also plus then you have the potential for horses to start cribbing (chewing on the wood and getting mouth splinters). A cheaper idea might be for her to buy old pipes and weld them into a fence!
