It's really unfair that this is happening to you when your T is not around. As hard as it may seem in your isolated state, I'm guessing that you'll be able to pick up with your T more easily than you thought. This is his stock in trade afterall.
I'm trying to get ready to go away for a week, which means I have no business being on the computer. Work has been a nightmare - I didn't get everything done that I really needed to, and I'm going to have to come back to work earlier than I wanted. And at the same time i'm trying to fight off all these feelings that I can't tolerate myself.
So I have no true family emergency to report like yours, but I was in my office late this afternoon, trying to wrap things up so I could get home (to start doing about 4 loads of laundry) when i get a call from my 16 year old daughter who had just run into my 19 year old son at the local fitness club - and she's complaining that my son won't switch cars with her so she's stuck driving around to her friends' houses in my minivan, which makes her feel old, and it's no fair that he gets the better car all the time etc etc etc. I just sat there in a helpless state of shock totally disbelieving that my children, at their ages, would actually bring this dispute to me, now in particular, and, more shockingly, actually expect me to do something about it.
I hope things look up tomorrow - at least then maybe your staff won't be bugging you.
