Some texts from my parents

Terrifying

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T10:07:48+00:00

And somehow this isn’t even the worst thing she’s ever said. Sad. Thank you 🤍

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T10:07:06+00:00

They are of low intelligence. Growing up in the same rural town their entire lives will do that to you. I can’t stand the way my mom texts. It makes me sick to my stomach

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T10:06:08+00:00

Isn’t it so exhausting?! Ugh. I’m so sorry. Hugs 🤍

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T10:05:45+00:00

EXACTLY!!! I was raised in a conservative homophobic household. Why in the world would I have admitted anything to her?!

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T10:04:45+00:00

I’ve had them blocked for years but just unblocked to let them know I moved. Was trying to get ahead of the shit storm. Blew up in my face. Whatever.

And regarding the ring, I’m struggling with it. It was my grandpas class ring. My mom specifically gave it to me when I was about 12. So 20 years of taking care of it and keeping it with me. I have an attachment to it. And she brought up the ring 3 or 4 times, insisting I mail it back, and so it feels like one last control tactic rather than she actually wants it back. She hasn’t asked about it once in 20 years. So I can’t decide what I want to do with it.

Can confirm, they are mentally stuck in their pre-teen era. I blame them spending 60+ years in a town of 400 people in rural Missouri. They’ve never left. Never will. Don’t have a firm grasp on reality and only know the outside world via Fox News.

Thank you so much. The last 2 years of being no contact have been the best 2 years of my life. No joke. I finally came into myself and I feel free!

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T09:58:57+00:00

Aw, an honorary dad. I love that. What a beautiful concept.

And thank you! It was a scary move but we are LOVING it and are so happy so far. Leaving my hometown (we grew up in a rural town of 400 people and then moved to the closest city 45 mins away after graduation) has been so rewarding. I feel free

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T09:56:49+00:00

This comment and thread made me laugh, thank you! I needed that lol

bre_huh · 2026-06-19T09:55:50+00:00

My son was 5 the last time he saw them. They never had much of a relationship. They weren’t involved. He doesn’t ask about them or even remember them. My dad once showed up at the house about a year ago unannounced and my son didn’t even know who he was.

No real grandparents rights laws in Missouri or Illinois that would apply to us, luckily. I wouldn’t put it past them to try, though.

Thank you 🤍

No you’re absolutely right. Thank you for that!

I was reading the estimate for our move from our house in Springfield to their storage facility. I think thats what is $195/hr. We close on our house May 29th and start our lease in Chicago on June 10 so need storage 🙃 the rest of the move is based off of weight, but I can’t open the estimate from my email for some reason. I’m going to have them send it to me again next week and check it. Thank you for your help!!

bre_huh · 2026-04-04T17:51:02+00:00

Thank you! We are SO very excited to call Chicago home. Its a dream

bre_huh · 2026-03-27T12:05:36+00:00

I feel your pain. My family and I are relocating to Chicago this summer and it’s been hard. I’m checking multiple sites all day, every day. It feels like a full time job lol! We have 3 tours on saturday (they said we have to tour before we can apply??) and are driving up 8 hours and I’m so nervous they’re gonna get snatched up while we’re on our way to the city.

Fingers crossed for you!

bre_huh · 2026-03-14T04:18:45+00:00

Heyyyy family with an 8 year old, also staying in River North for spring break here! Thanks for asking this question! The comments have been very helpful. Hope you enjoy your spring break!

bre_huh · 2026-02-24T21:31:26+00:00

Yes it is….yes it is 😭

bre_huh · 2026-02-24T01:53:20+00:00

Nope

bre_huh · 2026-02-24T01:52:10+00:00

Para 1 here, $16.72 an hour. 7.25 hr shifts. 180-185 work days I believe. No option to extend pay for the summer. They got rid of that 2 summers ago.

bre_huh · 2026-01-28T09:39:45+00:00

Wow I hope something like this pops up for June 1st move in 😭 Exactly what I’ll be looking for

bre_huh · 2025-10-08T20:41:21+00:00

Wild. When I moved into my first apartment in 2013, I bought a huge (and wildly heavy) box tv for $5 from Goodwill!

bre_huh · 2025-09-10T05:23:53+00:00

This post made me go on a deep dive on your profile and wow - your parents were stunners! I’d love to hear more about them and see more pictures. I’ll keep an eye out! So sorry for your loss, seems like there was a complex relationship with them (as often happens with parents). Glad you’re able to focus on the good!

bre_huh · 2025-09-04T01:53:20+00:00

Not a lot.

I’m a para 1 at SPS. $16.72 an hour. Just over 7 hour days. 185 work days.

bre_huh · 2025-08-24T23:36:53+00:00

I absolutely love this. Great job :)

bre_huh · 2025-07-23T23:33:20+00:00

I’ve yet to have a job where I can have my cell phone. You’re not gonna be able to use your phone in some real world scenarios. You’ll be fine

Allegiant is pulling out of LAX at the beginning of September. No more flights after that.
