Y'll, I think too much is being read into body language. Example from this week in my life that is still troubling me, last week I was in a roundtable type meeting directly affecting the work that I do. I was taking notes, listening intently, and speaking at times but mostly letting others talk-- that was the point of the meeting. After the meeting, one board member told another, I seemed disengaged and not myself. The other board member said, "I had a lot on my mind due to my divorce." The first board member subsequently called me to inquire. I was floored and astounded. I wasn't disengaged, nothing was on my mind but the discussion and how to bring forth the points being made in an upcoming strategic planning session with the entire board. My divorce was three years ago! I've asked myself over and over, how on earth did they come up with those observations!! I've decided I need a face lift.
My observation is that pretty much everyone has personal issues....but absolutely nothing was on my mind in that regard or any other personal issue that day. This misobservation, hopefully won't but could have an effect on my future employment.
Terri is in a difficult spot. I hope she wasn't involved. I hope Kyron is alive.
Innocent or guilty, she just can't talk at this point. Recently, sorry I can't recall the name, a 20 year old cold case was solved here a month or so ago...a serial killer from out of state. Her fiance at the time, whom I know casually, was always the suspect, didn't do it and it always affected his life to a degree.
My daughter is a step-mother. She's a great one. Orginally, there was alot of animosity...then none...the step and the bio became friends. In May, the 17-year-old moved out on her own..my daughter had nothing to do with it but given the situation would have preferred if that was going to happen that the girl had come to live with her but she won't. The mother is blaming my daughter. My daughter was as astounded as the entire family when the girl left. My daughter, now divorced from the father, is praying for peace in the valley for all parties and that the seventeen year old doesn't throw a promising future away.
