No brakes!!!

"Wheeeee" my daughter said as we blew through the intersection at the end of our road. I was pulling leather seat out of my puckered butt after that.
Seems I lost vac. brake boost to the brakes. I didn't notice if I had it when I started the car and shifted into drive. Didn't touch the brakes again till the end of the road and felt like I would pull the steering wheel off as I was pulling on it trying to push the brake pedal down.
I've done a search on here and have checked a few things. Pedal doesn't go down after starting car, feels the same. Can't find a vacumn leak. Any way to check the two relays for the pump or do you have to just swap them out (one is $65) Any way to jump them?
Went back home and switched to the boring but reliable Subaru.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Captain
