Today's accomplishments:

1) Fell off the ladder as it slid out from beneath me.
2) Hit several branches on the way down.
3) Landed on top of the ladder and managed to break it.
4) Somehow survived with only minor cuts and bruises.

I think I'm done trimming the cherry trees in the back yard. #Weekend #Chores

@charette oooof. So glad you are intact! That must have been scary while it was happening!

@nomdeb At 9.8 m/s^2, it happens fast enough that I was kissing dirt before I could think about it.

In retrospect, I think as I get older maybe I shouldn't be doing these kinds of chores where I'm climbing trees and cutting branches.
