I would simply have entered the house due to the perceived emergency situation (which you had outlined in black and white in that repair notice). No heat, no hot water, carbon monoxide - these are emergencies and do not require notice to permission to enter. Simply use your own key to enter, knock and yell loudly upon entry "LANDLORD! I'M HERE TO CHECK THE EMERGENCY!" and check out the listed items. Then leave notice for the tenant of why you entered (outlining the emergency) and what measures are being taken to remediate those problems. You could than have hired the plumber to correct the gas problems on Friday morning and left on your trip.

Learn to say no, screen better, maintain composure, and manage your stress. Hope you can reduce the stress level and get your health back under control.
