Nothing too much going on. The weekend was spent watching football and my boyfriend preparing lesson plans for next week. We did volunteer at the store Saturday selling hot dogs to raise money for a student's memorial fund. He passed away in June. My boyfriend grilled and I served the hot dogs. A lot of money was raised, and it was nice of the store to donate all of the food. Plus it was a great deal. $3 for a hot dog, chips and a drink. We got some great yearbook pictures of the event.
Because of how long it takes to mail deposits, I have been trying to open an Alaskan bank account. Unfortunately, our village has no bank so I need to do it online. My boyfriend was going to make the deposit in person in Anchorage, but everything is stalled because I have an out of state ID at the moment and cannot do anything about it until I can get to Anchorage myself. The issue is they want mail with my physical address on it, like a utility bill. Since we are in the bush, we do not have physical addresses and we do not pay for utilities so we get no bills like that. All i have is my check that has a PO box on it. So waiting to hear back about it tomorrow. If they do not sort it out tomorrow I will just have to cash my paycheck here. Also trying to get a cell phone, but there is no buy online option. You need to go to Bethel or Anchorage it seems. Now that I know what I am making, I am getting a cell phone, hopefully.
