There was a branch in my tree that snapped off...
and was just hanging there freely wedged between two other branches.
It was maybe a foot or foot and a half above me.
I thought I would just jump up and grab it to remove it from the tree.
When I tried to jump with my arm stretched out, I came about one inch off the ground, swinging my arm wildly. When I landed from my super high jump, I jolted my spine and got out of breath.
I casually looked around to make sure no one saw me, then I went back into the house.

is a little bit sappy.
Glad you're okay though.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
