Branch??!! That looks like a whole tree. Suing one's neighbors is probably not a good idea if you want to live in peace, but the jerk with the cedar tree is probably liable, as well as being a despicable human being. Glad to see that other neighbors and friends are being helpful.

I *just* got off a call with two dear friends where we were discussing the Ego Monster that insists everything is a) about us and b) our fault—AND NOW HERE YOU ARE IN MY INBOX DISCUSSING EXACTLY THE SAME THING! What a perfect description of its inner workings. I'm so sorry about your tree misfortune, but grateful that it led to this post—and perhaps to some opportunities to let your people help and also whittle away at the little bastard's grip on your soul at the same time. Sending you an enormous heap of love and competent carpentry wishes.
