Yeah ... We used to get along with these neighbors too. And I trimmed their tree up the property line because this tree had taken out our power at least twice ... Maybe 3 times I'd have to ask Grumpy.
On top of all that, the branch that fell on me broke off at the trunk and flipped as it hit other branches on the way down. When that happened it caused the thick, heavy end of the branch (the end that broke from the tree, not the end with the lighter, more dispersed branches and leaves) smacked me square across the back from my left shoulder across my spine to my right hip. Talk about lighting someone up. When I came to -- it's funny buy for a while I thought I didn't lose consciousness when my head hit the concrete -- but now I distinctly remember when I came to.
Weird, huh?? It is interesting how a closed head injury affects you. You can be so damned sure of your recollection of events and then months later realize that maybe you WERE unconscious for a period of time. It's been an adventure, that's for sure ...
