[@emi-dy]

Yay, I was so happy to see this video in my feed. 😊 You did an amazing job! The office and patio both look super cozy! I'm obsessed with home/decor videos so I would love to see more. 💕 And omg, Orlando is such a little troublemaker! Glad he made it home safe and sound. 🤣

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Aw so glad you were excited for this one! Me too, I love home improvement style videos! Hahah orlando is such a troublemaker! I am also so glad he was okay after the whole debocle! 💕💕

[@papa7866]

great video! that orlando story was wiiiild lol glad he's okay. definitely yes to more home related videos :)

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Thank you so much! 🙏🏽 right!!! So wild! He woke up and chose violence 😂 Glad to hear it!!

[@melissapowers4780]

Oh geez! Poor Orlando!!! Glad you got him back! Could you leash him out there? Get a leash that just allows him to go to the love seats and plants.

[@GabbyPeterson17]

I know 😭 so glad I got him back safely! We’ve considered a leash! I think he would end up tangling himself up pretty quickly but it is a good option to keep him off the railing

[@kateaustin1357]

The Orlando story was crazy!! So glad you’re both okay 🫶🏼 loving the patio/office refresh journey - thanks for sharing and also including the financial aspect of it too. Appreciate your content and the work you put in to creating it all Gabby! X

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Right!! The little escape artist 😂 I am so glad I never saw him on the railing I would have had a heart attack. So glad you enjoyed!! And thank you so much, that means a lot 💕🙏🏽

[@kateaustin1357]

@@GabbyPeterson17 He really is! 🤣 Go you for saving him up there, hope you get your bistro chair back eventually too. Honestly love all your videos! You can tell you put a lot of work into editing and creating - looking forward to your next upload as always 💕

Gabby congrats on hitting 3k subscribers!! I just found your channel and you are growing so quickly - your content is great and consistent so no wonder!

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Thank you so much Grace, that is so kind!! I am so excited for the future. 💕

[@sabinemetz]

New subscriber here! Been loving the personal finance video's, and now looking forward to some home decor content (my other current interest, haha!) 🤍

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Hi Sabine! Thank you so much for joining the fam 🫶🏼 and so glad what I’m loving is lining up with your interests as well!! 💕

Love the patio makeover! Definitely suggest a breakaway collar with your info until you can get him chipped. No one knows your lost cat with a collar isn’t an indoor cat except for their owners unfortunately and it makes it hard for them to be reunited. It is quite a large needle so I see why they prefer doing it under sedation. If he is allowed back on the patio I would just look up the plants you got to see if they are cat safe. ❤ I’m updating my apartment later this month and loved the inspo !!! Love all of your finance videos.

[@ezraglenn8439]

Especially with him being a specialty breed I would worry about someone stealing him if they found him 😢

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Yeah I agree I think a leash and harness/ collar is a great idea for this summer. I definitely have always worried about ever seeing him again if he were to get away, we have coyotes in the area too. He luckily isn't interested in plants for the most part, unless he's trying to get our attention (he knows he's not supposed to mess with them haha)! Good luck on your apartment refresh! I love an update to my space :)

[@theburrowofstories]

I started following you maybe less than a month ago and I just KNEW I had to buy your Budget Spreadsheet! I think for years I've seen so many of those but I was never convinced until I saw yours which I think it adjusts a lot to what I wanted (and didn't know I needed lol). I'm excited to use it for the rest of the year.

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Wow thank you for supporting both my channel and spreadsheet! I hope you love it 💕 I felt the same way about some trackers and that was my main driver for making my own!!

[@tmac8798]

I love all your videos Gabby❤

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Thank you so much! I’m so glad 💕

[@mishka.a]

Hi, your spreadsheet is messed up :( charts in monthly view are not where they should be and they have different colors from template. Downloaded on mac, ipad and windows - same thing. Also, there are too little lines for expenses categories (in budget set up), is there a way to add more?

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Hi Mishka! Can you send me a message on Etsy, I can help look into this for you!

[@chanellegoulet6165]

Maybe the BBQ wouldn't be as much of an eye sore with a BBQ cover??? Maybe??

[@GabbyPeterson17]

That is actually a really good idea! Plus would keep it clean so it doesn’t end up with dirt and grime all over 😂

[@hollygibson1782]

Was that a pothos you put in the planter? If so I wouldn’t recommend it as an outdoor plant. They won’t survive in colder temperatures so it would probably need to be moved inside after the summer or it will die 😬 Ps love your videos

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Hi Holly! It was! Haha I couldn’t find an outdoor vining plant when I went to Home Depot and figured the pothos would be fine for the summer. I likely will transfer it indoors after the summer! It will probably be okay here in Vancouver until November. Gotta keep the pothos alive!! Thank you so much 🫶🏼

[@StarletOfDavid]

Wait, is your bf German? Where did he get the Dortmund football thingy from? instead of ivy 😖 plant some mint - it grows like crazy and you will always be able to make tea.

[@StarletOfDavid]

Ah ok, it has to grow up. Got it.

[@StarletOfDavid]

Also, when my dog was micro-chipped it took a second. I don’t think my dog even realized it. I’m not a vet though - so I don’t know.

[@GabbyPeterson17]

He is!! His dad is German from Dortmund! That is a good idea, I should have done an herb that I could actually use 😂 I ended up with a pothos since there wasn’t another outdoor vining plant

[@LiannaBM]

what is with you and all the comments about your partner's hobbies.

[@GabbyPeterson17]

Hi Lianna! I’m not too sure what you mean, I have no problem at all with his hobbies. I do prefer certain decor/ keeping things less cluttered. I may jokingly say I am not excited about having some of his stuff on display, but I fully respect that it is our home and he has every right to have his interests on display. I just like finding creative ways to work them into my design style/ making them look nice.
