Just a girl writing in the blogging ring
FORENSIC BRIDGOLOGY DATA FORM I have started my “hermit crab essay” and hopefully this link takes you right to it. This is an assignment from writing class. The assignment was to write a story in a bizarre, alien format. I’m writing about Beaver Hole, Warrington Twp, York, PA in the alien format of a forensic reports.
Let me know what you think of my bizarre essay@@@ thanks. Pattie

Standing around thinking about where this divorce is going. Just dyed my hair. Why don’t those hairs in the front take the dye? Those stubborn grey hairs that pop out all over. It boggles my mind all the different avenues this divorce may take. I worry about how this divorce is affecting my daughter. I know there is no saving my marriage at this point. Because I accept that, I am ready for the divorce. All this court over custody and support is a huge waste of money and time. Time from Tess, school, household duties. Just the time spent preparing for what may happen. What if? There is just so much to consider. I still feel I am under this mans thumb.
They are lime green track pants. Not actually sweatpants. I bought them at the Goodwill to save money. They are comfy, color of my college and $1.50. Sweet, sexy and thrifty. That’s me 🙂

I just finished trying to talk to the future ex husband. It ended in a yelling match with me hanging up on him, again. There is no talking to this man. After repeatedly texting him to find out if he has or is going to pay some money towards his support, I had to resort to calling him. I HATE calling him. I don’t want to have to talk to this dreadful man!
Yesterday was bad enough meeting the new girlfriend but then he has the audacity to tell me he’s not paying anymore child support. Why? Because I claimed Tess on my taxes. He never files his taxes early, but I saw no reason to wait. He is furious that I claimed Tess on my taxes for last year because I claimed her the year before. Nothing is written in our divorce on who legally can claim her. Why isn’t it written in? Because the divorce proceedings haven’t even started yet other than he filed on 10/09/08.
My lawyer said let him know you’re claiming Tess, so I did and Jhole left me a NASTY message that I of course, saved. Then today, as my checking account begins to dwindle, he says he’s not paying anything until after this upcoming (mid-March) hearing. This hearing is just over support, not custody. John intends to sue me for custody by the time school starts. Now anyone could tell John that he HAS to pay his support no matter what he thinks because…Duh! It’s court ordered!
John claims he doesn’t have the money to pay support anymore…
REALLY? How do you manage to have so many girlfriends then? In my eyes I see it like this: John+girlfriend=my support money used in his search of a new wife!
As usual, I parked my car at the top of my driveway waiting for Jhole to let Tess out of the house. (That’s ordered by the crooked court of Harry Ness) Sitting at the top of the drive I saw Tess come flying out the door followed by her father. I was busy pulling her carseat out of the trunk and when I looked up I saw Jhole had a woman following him up the drive. I was fine with having to park at the top of our driveway, figuring I wouldn’t have to see him.
Not so lucky, as Jhole always seems to find a reason to come to my car. I was pretty sure his last girlfriend that I was aware of, Shirley somebody, was out of the picture. I knew the one before Shirley, Kelli was lone gone back in Oct 2010. She accidentally caught him cheating on an audio tape. She called me and left a craaaaazy voice mail about me having my husband back and the house, etc cause she caught him fucking on tape. I don’t know who was watching our daughter while he had that afternoon delight.
I lost track of who all has been my replacement wife. Hell, I started out as a replacement wife. Never thought I would be the second wife to be disposed of. There was a Tammy (she had me charged with harrassment…bitch!), a Pam, hell he even went after our secretary..she wisely said NO WAY! Then Kelli who was in blind love with Jhole just as I was. She changed everything in her life except her job (smart….I gave up my career) and put thousands of her money into Jhole and I’s home and business. Kelli was just another sucker in love. Shirley….don’t know what happened there and that lets Heather. After Jhole introduced her as his girlfriend I said, “oh you’re the new girlfriend.” Jhole didn’t like that but I didn’t care. I was more interested in getting Tess in the car and getting the hell away from John. His patheticness makes me want to puke everytime I am near him.
Tess was obviously uncomfortable with the introduction of the most recent chick in his life to her mommy. She didn’t even want to say goodbye to her dad and he had to MAKE her say goodbye to Heather. She called Tess “sweetie and said she would see her friday.” I held back the wretching noises…Heather has much to learn about her new boyfriend. He will throw anyone under a bus to get what he wants. I would know.
I changed everything for him….at his insistance. Unfortunately, I’m stuck dealing with his bullshit for the next 14 years. I dread the fight of custody when Tess starts school this fall. Looks like he will force me to court to get his way. I don’t see him winning but then again, I didn’t see still being married 2 and half years after he filed!
I heard back from Dover Township very quickly. The bridge ID#66722009243209 and here is what they had to say:
Ms Crider,
the bridge is maintained by York County.
According to a PennDOT list of York County bridges it was inspected in Feb 2009 and due to be inspected the end of this month.
He also gave me the name and phone number of the gentleman who would know more about that specific bridge. So, now I’m on a personal search for information on this bridge. I sent my original webblog page “who’s bridge is this?” to this contact person and also requested information on its history. coincidentally, I have to write a non-fiction story about something I feel closely about. Since I already have the momentum flowing, I’m going to stick with the Beaver Hole bridge theme.
These pictures are from July last year. My sister is so graceful. She winds up in the water every time we go to Beaver Hole. Tesla and Blaine love it there and it makes for beautiful background in pictures.
The most recent picture is of Tesla yesterday.
More posts to come about Beaver Hole and the story of the BIG LEAF FIND!
So I tell my son Zeth I’m taking him to a lecture with me tonight. The lecture was about the civil war, slavery, Gettysburg. I assured him it wouldn’t be as bad as history class and he might even find it interesting. Zeth met my professor, Dr. Kennedy on the way in. Zeth immediately put out his hand to shake after the introduction. Inside my head I’m thinking, “good job son…I have raised you right.” Dr. Kennedy said, “you made your son come in for this?” I said “yep, can’t hurt.”
Wow, I was wrong. Of all lectures, I drag Zeth to the most boring York College lecture I ever attended. The speaker’s voice was monotone and I found myself losing interest. Didn’t think it could be possible, but this lecture made war and slavery boring. I looked over at Zeth and his eyes were closed.
So we ditch the lecture…and to his delight, the lobby was now set up with fruit, cheese, crackers, cookies….That cheered him right up. I had to cut him off at 3 cookies. Damn, they were good. Lecture, not so good. Sorry son! It was only extra credit…for me.
who does this?!?!
I couldn’t help but notice the huge DAD written in permanent marker on my daughter’s pants tag. I looked twice as I turned them inside right, preparing them for the laundry. Yes, it did say DAD on Tesla’s pants. So I grab her shirt and checked out the tagless Walmart blouse. It’s really cute shirt with a little carousel horse on it. Tesla just LOVES horses and this was the first I ever saw this outfit, clearly new. Yes, it did say DAD on the inside of her tagless shirt. WHO labels their child’s clothing with DAD? Even if he did buy it for her (or perhaps a new girlfriend did) it’s still TESLA’s clothes. At what age does a child of a man who is obsessed with what he has and what he can buy stop seeing DAD inside her clothes, new or old. Eventually, new clothes are old. This whole situation is just getting old, but never dull. Seriously, I can’t make this shit up.
I love going to the bridge at Beaver Creek. It’s so peaceful there and perfect to do homework at or take the kids to play in the water. Since visiting there beginning last summer I noticed the old stone bridge wasn’t in such good shape. I notified the state of it’s disrepair. The state called and said they would look into it. If they actually went to the bridge is in debate because the following day they called to say it didn’t fall under the state’s responsibility to repair and told me to talk to Warrington Township. So, I sent WT an email. They wrote back saying it’s not their bridge. Mapquest lists it in Dover so I emailed Dover Township and asked if this was their bridge and if it is, I would like to see bridge inspection certificates. I have to wait 5 days max for their response. Honestly, I don’t know who owns the land but it’s a popular place and beautiful year round. So, I will continue investigating who Beaver Hole bridge belongs to and who should repair it. Eventually, it’s going to fall. Pictures tell a thousand words…there’s even a tree growing out at the base!!
