Default Bad time of year for sun

My next door neighbor south of me has a HUGE tree that is blocking all my sun now that the sun moves further south. I do get some direct sun thru my south facing skylites in sunroom, but pretty soon I won't have any sunlite till all the leaves on that tree fall off. Plants are still outside & won't come in till just before first frost which could be in a month or so. Maybe this is good "conditioning" for the plants for winter? Gradually getting them used to less sun? There is a huge horizontal branch on it that I keep wishing would fall over from a big storm but, no luck there so far.
From now thru October I will not get much sun (till leaves fall off)...same thing in April - but opposite...when leaves start growing, I won't get sun till it's about directly over the yard.
I once killed a tree by drilling holes in it & pouring Roundup into the holes...was easier to cut it down. I'm wondering if there is way to shoot Roundup into - at least that big branch, from my yard Any ideas? (I never liked this guy anyway - for stalking & harrassing the hell out of me for years)
