Speaker 2 (00:04):
Well, let's ask American mama's Alma Mama enjoying us?

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Now are American mama's Terneteville and Kimberly Burlison. Oh so
sad you guys got to go. Thank you so much
for enjoyed it. Okay, So how long until you've overstayed
your and y'all could never overstay? You're welcome here on
American Ground Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
We love you guys.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Oh thank goodness too. This is like an actual topic
in our house right now. Really, yes, this is a topic.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
You have a house guest.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Well, when people came, I'm like, please just stay for
a long weekend, please, Okay, I just want a long weekend.
Three days, three three days maybe four three four tops.
That's it, you know, because the rule of thumb is
you want people to be, you know, sad that you
leaving and wishing you had stay longer, sure, and not
relieve that you're leaving. Okay, So we're going to Portland

(01:06):
and my husband's brother lives in Portland. Okay, it's going
to be his birthday. So my husband because it's his brother.
He wants to go for a week, all right, And
I said, we're not doing that. I said, I won't go,
and he's like, you won't go, and I'm like, not
if you're going for a week. I said, I'll go
for a long weekend. But that's as long as I'm
going because but this is my brother. I said, no,

(01:27):
I'm telling you. His wife doesn't want us there for
more than a long weekend. Trust me.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Okay, But is it possible that other people have a
different determination.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
It's not.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
What is not possible, It's not possible. It's not possible.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
Well, it depends on if it's family or if it's friends. Okay,
let's just say it like that. Like I remember, and
this is probably why when we were growing up, if
we were allowed to spend the night with somebody, they
would take us at five the night Friday night and
they would pick us up by ten Saturday morning.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Amy, that was it.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
That was it, okay.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
And I always like, oh, we were you know, we
were just getting started and nope, that's the deal. Well
then you become a parent and you're like, what a
gift that was, you know, because usually if a kid
stays it will be all day and then they might
stay that night another night on the weekends. I had
this happen all the time. But I also remember we
were when we lived in Missippi. I was in seventh grade,
you were in the eighth grade. Raleigh Walker and his

(02:23):
family came and stayed with us. They were coming in
and they were going on to Florida for the beach. Well,
they got there the night before. Mom put on a
big meal. We had a great time. We had fun
with the kids, and then we all had big pilot
palettes on the floor in the living room. The next
morning we woke up, they were gone, and I was like,
oh wait, we're Scott Matt and where's everybody. My dad said,

(02:47):
that's the way to do it.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
That's the way to do it.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
So that's what we did if we needed a landover.
You know, it's like you don't want them to feel
like they have to get up and make big breakfast
and they can say, oh, we wish I would have
stayed there the guests. But inside it's like when when
Kimberly and I went to New York just for a visit,
we stayed with our cousin Rachel, and how many days,
like three or four, I don't know, and we were
never there. We we we had a mission first of all,

(03:12):
so we were there on a mission. But we saw
every single site everything we wanted to see. And Rachel's
husband was like, they're the best guests we have ever had.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
We weren't there.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
We took them, woke up. Yeah, then we were. We
were went to bed that we are not there. They're
working too.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
Yeah, we're trying to stay out of the way. And
we were enjoying ourselves too. So that was a free
you know, free board for the time that we were there.
So we didn't want to and we didn't want to
interfere in their time. But I just think that if
you leave, like Kimberly said, it's kind of like at
a party, if you leave the party at a place
where people.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Are like, oh man, I wish that.

Speaker 4 (03:47):
I wish they didn't have to leave so early. That
was so fun. We got to have them back rather
than be the person where they're flicking the light on
and off like everybody, Hey, we got to go to bed.
You know, there's just you have to be.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Aware of you remember me sharing that friend I used
to have that I dropped like a sandbag. Remember that
one worst guess I ever had. So when we lived
in Utah, you would not believe the number of people
that want to come to your home because they want
to ski. Sure, so I'm talking weeks at a time,
We're having constant guests. We were not wealthy, we were
just in our twenties. You know, just fly today. So

(04:22):
that's a lot. That's very costly to have people come
to your home for a week at a time, all
the time in the winter. And to me, I thought
if people would come just for a long weekend. But
then say, I know, you got.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
A job to do.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
You got work to do, You do your thing. We
just needed a place to stay all day every day.
I can do that. But could they want you to
entertain them?

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (04:44):
No, no, only certain certain people. But that one friend
I dropped like a sandbag. Were complained to me. You
fit into people's lifestyle if they wake up there, if
you wake up early, fit into their lifestyle.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Right. No, I get that, absolu, and I try and
do that when I when I travel somewhere new, I
want to fit into the culture that's that's there. And
households have their own cultures. So yeah, you do want
to try and fit in, and if you don't like
their culture, don't stay there next.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
Time exactly for five days exactly. So when you and
Wendy come to my house.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Weekend, tops, I'm delightful. People want me stay way past
everyone everyone else going. They're like that guy. Okay, well
we're out of time. If you like to ask our
