Maybe paper/non-screen entertainment things? I feel like I would get tired of looking a screen after a while if I were home for a month. Sudoku/crosswords, smutty romance novels, puzzles (if she's not bed-bound).
YMMV: I'm a snacker, especially when I'm bored, so I would need low-cal snacks and drinks on-hand to avoid eating waaaaay too much. Flavored seltzer water, roasted seaweed, gum. This will obviously super vary by person and it's possible that keeping weight on will be a concern for her, so maybe tread carefully.
Finally, another thing that's pretty ~personal~: ways to clean yourself that don't require showering (if that's something that might be difficult for her). Cleansing wipes and dry shampoo.
Big Sheeet from Thailand - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tao-Kae-Noi-Japanese-Seaweed/dp/B007J69HAW/ref=sr_1_1?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1415107952&sr=1-1&keywords=big+sheet+spicy
The taste is immense and they are very low on calories
Yup, the leafy stuff is baby spinach sauteed with 1 clove of garlic. I used a little sesame oil to flavor it before serving.
The bowl to the top right of the photo is mentsuyu which is typically served as a dipping sauce for soba. It's a mix of dashi (stock made from bonito and kombu, but I cheated and used Hondashi ) , soy sauce and mirin.
The tempura shrimp is [premade] (http://seapak.com/products/tempura-shrimp).
I also chopped 1 scallion and grated about 2 tsp of ginger (typically you'd grate fresh wasabi but I live in the states) which you would grab bits of with your noodle before dunking it in the mentsuyu.
The 'soba'/miracle noodles I rinsed thoroughly to get rid of the funk and soaked it in some ice water the entire duration I was prepping the rest of the food, roughly for 30 minutes. I then took 2 sheets from a roasted seaweed snack packs and cut them up to put on top of the drained noodles.
This is what zaru soba & tempura would typically look like if you ordered it at a restaurant. Soba on its own is a 'healthier' alternative to pasta as it is made from buckwheat, it has less calories and more protein and fiber, but since I only had a little under 300 calories left for yesterday's dinner, I went with the miracle noodles.
These seaweed snacks are incredible and they come in a variety of flavours. Check 7-11 to see if they have them. If not, you can order online.
https://www.amazon.com/gimMe-Organic-Premium-Roasted-Seaweed/dp/B00BCG0OAC nori strips - salty and crunchy, can distract me from chips! (1pt) I agree with good thins corn and salsa- when i feel super snacky that gets me far. banana dipped in PB2 chocolate powder (1pt) Or I make riffs of Elote salad- pending how many points I want to spend I use corn, scallions, chili powder, garlic, FF eta (lower pt option) or FF mayo (higher pt option)- super yummy, and put over romaine if I need more filling. Can also add in black or pinto beans for more of a side dish/lunch... and of course a tumaro wrap (1Pt) with FF refried beans (0pts) and some reduced fat feta or cheddar, salsa, lettuce, etc!
That one is similar, but not quite the same one. That stuff is okay, but it's not worth the calories. It's like big pieces of tempura fried onto the seaweed. It only 130 calories a bag!. Frying the seaweed makes me squeamish but I am confident in weighing the seaweed, frying it, then weighing it again to calculate how much oil is absorbed. It's my favorite snack and sometimes just can't afford the packaged version. I'm the opposite way and can't rationalize eating something after looking at the cals on the package. I've gotten obsessive over cooking and am working on a copycat Halo Top right now. There's xanthan gum and a scale that measure to 1/00th of a gram in my pantry...
BTW sugar-free Hershey's Syrup is 5 cal/ Tbp and pretty doggone good.
If you dont mind the seaweed flavor, I use these for egg salad/chicken/tuna salad wraps, and sometimes as burritos.They sell them at most whole foods, kroger stores, etc.

If you ever get tired of regular seaweed, I stumbled upon a flavoured seaweed alternative at an Asian grocer. There are several other flavours--my fav is tom yum!
gimMe Snacks Organic Roasted Seaweed Snacks, Teriyaki, 0.35 Ounce (Pack of 12) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F0UAMCQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fFrVzbHHK8NRJ
This is my favorite brand, and you should be able to order it off Amazon. :)
I don't know about Alaska specifically, but this kind of seaweed is a very popular snack at least in Hawai'i, and I assume in Polynesian and Asian communities in other areas.

This is another (cheaper) option
