Guest guest Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Here I was thinking we would be rewarded, with a 3 night stay at the Hilton on the beach as a hidden benefit. No such luck !! But I have been looking for some of these benefits and I have to agree with - they just aren't there. I just love being stuck in the house all day and having to dole out pills and clean up diapers, not to mention 3 meals a day to be prepared and chopped up and cleaned up after (the table and the floor), but of course the dog helps out with the floor cleaning, after I check to see that no pills were dropped. Then we have the frequent visitors and sometimes they tell him things that make him get mad at me (unusual benefit). The police arrive at the door at 3 a.m. because he called 911 (police protection-a benefit); he snuck out so I have to get in the car and go look for him (major benefit) !!! The TV is another story - the benefit here is that I will soon know everything about remotes, DVD players etc. - maybe I could get a job with Comcast. Definately a hidden benefit. And I'd be willing to bet that we could all be licensed as caregivers (CNAs) and make upwards of $20.00 per hour.The bottom line here is the difference between doing research and actually living it. But, being an optimist, I will continue to search for these hidden treasures and the very moment I find even one, I will notify you. Bah hum bug !!
