Stranger Things!

It was after dinner of beef spaghetti and toasted black of garlic bread last night. I can't believe that the fire alarm didn't make any sound. I forgot that the garlic bread was inside the oven because I was reading flyers and newspaper. Anyway, no fire whatsoever. Just that before the smoke comes out from the oven I was able to turn off the oven. Maybe because I was alert of such situation and the smoke alarm didn't bother. I didn't even smell it though. Crazy! So that's probably it. Am I losing my sense of smell?

Then after dinner we heard knocks at the door. When my hubby opened the door we heard loud playing of guitar and the two girls started singing. OMG! What's happening?! What's going on? It's not Christmas Day nor holidays. Holidays are over! They are singing an ordinary song not Christmas song. Then she handed me over an empty envelope and I read it was a solicitation for a certain cause. Two younger girls (teens?) who were serenading us asking for donation. They were Filipinas,
 I am not sure if they are (?), didn't ask their names because I let them sing and I asked my husband if he wants to donate. We don't really keep cash at home. Although they were Filipinas (?), I don't know them. I don't know if they are children by parents who live in my community or within the city or they are from another city. I don't like interrogating them or put them on hold and ask so many questions. The last money I had from the holidays which I would like spend for a lottery ticket was then given to that charity. It's okay! Maybe it's really for the good cause.

Truth is don't like what they are singing, the song is too creepy for me to listen to that I gave my last money in my wallet. Goodbye my $20! Sayonara! Bon voyage! Arivederci! So long and goodbye! Babu!

OMG! Why not they just hold a party and sell tickets and hold a Chinese auction. That's what Filipino-Canadian Club or organization do in my community. They can collect empty cans and bottles. Sell hotdogs and hold a garage sale.  Because solicitation of such sort will soon need identification cards and letter from the City Mayor.

I have nothing against for GOOD CAUSE but if you are in Canada, in the U.S. and you knocked at the door and started being loud as if it's a holdup that's not funny, it's not amusing and it is not amazing ... it is outright scary!!!!! Those girls whoever they are scared me last night.
