To order takeaway two nights in a row?!

[30scrisis]

Terrible decision maker here... AIBU if I order takeaway from a local pub tonight? We had an Indian last night... I'm a single parent to three kids, this last week I've had two hospital appointments, worked every day, done all the childcare around that, and have a physical disability, with one DC with ALN. Oh and I have a fractured wrist. I'm exhausted. It's going to cost about £45... money isn't really an issue but I feel guilty as. I've packed on the weight over this last lockdown. So AIBU or would you go for it?

I don’t have any of those excuses. I ordered Japanese yesterday and I’ve got an Indian due in half hour. Go for it

Go for it, if it'll take some of the stress from meal planning aspect in order to have a quiet night I would. No judgement here. What would you get?

After that kind of week..Fuck It
Enjoy your takeaway and eat chicken salad from Monday

If we had takeaways here I’d definitely do it!
I’d sell my soul for a Chinese but it’s a trek.

I would if money isn't a concern. You could order something you know will be a bit healthy if you want to 'justify' it but tbh you've got to eat something anyway, may as well make life easy if you're happy to do so and it won't cause you any problems.

If you can afford it then do whatever you need to to cope!

Ooh, we're having a takeaway for the 2nd night in a row too. Go for it, OP. It's one of the few pleasures at the moment so don't feel guilty about it. Enjoy.

Do it

Go for it because you want it & can afford it ... more so because you've got a lot going on. Enjoy!

Well if you could go to the pub, you would probably have dessert, so this is healthier

Go for it and give yourself a break.

Do it and enjoy every bite.

I just did it but my excuse is that I am moving 3 hours away on Tuesday and have spent two days packing so am exhausted

Absolutely! We're getting one later! Also had McDonald's yesterday!

Oh I'd have a mushroom stroganoff wishing comes with rice, chips and garlic bread, two DC would have lasagna and one would probably have a bacon burger... I've just been called lazy so wondered if it was a bit unjustified! Thank you all, I feel a little less guilty now!

I had a chicken kabab last night and right now I am eating salt and pepper chips , I am decorating and cba cooking

Go for it

Do it. Enjoy it. There you go! 😊

I'd order two take aways in a row but £45?!?

I am

Exhausting week at work pizza last night (usually have McDonald’s on Friday) and Chinese tonight

Ds is very happy

Have been doing this for months now makes us happy

Why not? I ordered takeaway for lunch and dinner yesterday. 🤷‍♀️

You don't need to supply any reasons op YANBU go for it. I've ordered out for food 4 times this week.

It's a local pub who do home cooked food, hence the price. It is a little steep but I just really fancy a home cooked meal rather than a greasy takeaway again!

Go for it. Enjoy it. Sounds great 👍

And I’m a single parent to one child

I feel no guilt at all (though I do add broccoli to the Chinese order so he gets some veg 😁 )

Glad there are so many other that feel my pain tonight. Isn't life just a little bit difficult at the moment?

Crack on.
