What's wrong with women nowadays?

 I've done a menu plan for the next week or so....we're back to relatively healthy eating, having consumed most of the Christmas/New Year goodies.  Having said that, we have our good friends coming round for lunch today - a buffet style lunch, with some bought in snacky things (the friends don't really eat much of the healthy stuff that we normally eat).  That's fine, we'll have something healthy later on in the evening, I might make tzatziki to have with veg dippers.  Tomorrow I'm doing roasted Med veg with chicken chipolatas in the air fryer.  Sunday we'll have a homemade chicken & veg pie from the freezer, with veggies.  And that'll be me all chickened out (I usually only eat chicken perhaps once a week) so it'll be back to veggie or fish things for me next week, with home cooked ham, pork or pork sausages for husband.

This past year or so, a new fashion 'trend' has left me feeling bemused and, frankly, quite disturbed.  I'm referring to all the celebs - well, women specifically - who appear in public wearing next to nothing.  They go out in what is more or less their underwear, and very skimpy underwear at that - and in some cases none at all - covered over with completely see-through 'dresses' if they can be called that.  Quite apart from the fact that they must be freezing cold, it makes me wonder why they feel so much of a need to be noticed that they are prepared to go out more or less naked.  Have they no shame or embarrassment?  Or self esteem, come to that?  Do they not think that people will be noticing them for the wrong reasons, and maybe even laughing at them?

As for that bonkers egomaniac Kanye West and his new wife, Bianca whatever her name was, who apparently is an Australian architect, so presumably is quite intelligent - what the hell?  Well, they're certainly getting a ton of publicity (I believe he's about to have a new album out, or something, so wants as much exposure as possible).  He's always covered from top to toe in baggy black clothing, whilst he insists on her being practically starkers in public, other than some outlandish stupid thing like a giant furry hat or cushion or soft toy clutched to her chest.  And apparently he orders her not to speak in public.  Other than the fact that he's publicity crazy (or just crazy) and a clear control freak, he's also in my opinion obsessed with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian - his new wife is pretty much a clone of her.  And he appears to be using his new wife to publicly humiliate both her and the ex-wife.  So, an egomaniac, misogynist, controlling madman, with an intelligent wife who is clearly totally under his thumb.  I do wonder what goes on in some people's minds.  

Thankfully, the weather is forecast to be much drier for the next week or so, albeit colder.  Which is ok, I don't mind it being cold when it's sunny, we can always dress in warm clothes.  It'll just be nice to see a bit of sunshine and not have relentless rain and galeforce winds.  I'm just so glad we don't live in an area that floods, my heart goes out to those poor people shown on the news every day, whose homes are flooded meaning they'll not be able to live in them for months to come.  And the farmers with fields under water - how are they supposed to grow crops or feed animals?
