Everything did not go according to plan...

The Plan:
Get up at 7 and take husband to work. Be to sister's by 9:30 to babysit. Pick up brother at 1:45 from school. Take niece to Toys 'R' Us. Go back to sister's. Sister supposed to leave work by 2, go up to Salt Lake, be back by 4. Wait for sister come home by 4. Go home and finish making some christmas presents with Vicky. Hang out with husband and baby. Go to bed.

What really happened:
Got up at 7:45 and took husband to work. Half an hour late. Got to sister's by about 10 to baby sit. Picked brother up at 1:15 because he was wrong. Took brother and his friend home in very squished car. Went to Toys for longer than expected. Couldn't find keys. Realized keys were in Nephew's car seat. Got to the front of the store and saw that it had started snowing. Remembered something about a big storm coming today. Started driving home. Light snow turned into huge blizzard. Drove through a blizzard where the next street light was invisible. Almost home when other niece calls for a ride from the general area of where we had just been. Start attempt to pick niece up. Realize that the care will go off the road if I try to make it there. Tell niece to take the bus. Barely make it home and have to run babies into the house because it is snowing like angels peeing snowflakes. Get call at 3:30 that Sister and her husband are half an hour's worth of blizzard and traffic away from their Salt Lake destination. Try, unsuccessfully, to keep Nephew happy. Nephew screams for eternity. Get call from photographer that the family pictures are done but are only available for pickup for 15 more minutes. Sister, her husband and other niece get home at 7:05. Say hi to sister and run out the door with baby in tow. Race (sort of) to photo place to pick up photos. Go home. Mother-in-law attempting to get on the phone with insurance company to settle small matter of 4 inches of water in the basement of her rental property. Go downstairs to my room and hang out with husband and baby for an hour before going back upstairs so he can make dinner and I can finish Christmas presents. Get done with most of the Christmas presents by 1 am. Surf the net and write this silly blog until 1:50 am. Completely wiped. Bedtime.
