Thanks to all those who made a post here, sent me an E-Mail or called, wishing my Mom well. She had surgery for intestinal blockage & unrelated to that they took out her gall bladder.

She is still in the hospital & will be for another week at least. She came through the surgery better than expected. Especially considering that she is 90. She was able to sit up for a while today & they will start her on solid food on Sunday.

I will still be slow to answer my E-Mails as some family will be coming into town this coming week. They will be staying at my Mom's house, so I'll be over there a lot with them & also at the hospital.

I just got through playing about an hours worth of poker on Poker Stars to unwind & I will now get back to packing up orders. I will not be able to play in the tournament on Wednesday. I will be updating the leaderboard page for the tournament tomorrow though & sending out the E-Mail for the tournament along with the password.

ALL orders will be in the mail on Tuesday. I have also started to answer E-Mails & hope to be caught up with those by Tuesday also. I'll update my Web site on Tuesday with all the new chips that have come out.
