Trapped in Elevator with girls

Carry 1 double stroller, 17 month old, 3 1/2 year old, and their "stuff" down six flights of stairs

Climb up one more flight (to the NEW ultra ugly impenetrable "perched tower" they call a friendly residential housing office serving all-argh!)

Talk to very unhelpful and irritating housing office (what happened to the nice people I was used to? The kindness and concern? Sadly, the golden days of Mesa are over and we still have two long years!)

Run to Mollie's after being stuck in elevator, down six flights, up one, treated badly, and late for OBGYN

OB appointment-I need to go back to the lab another day

Both of our computers die (later they came back to life)

Tote kids over to the awful office again (covered in pesto tortellini and playdough)-get a key to the sublet.
