I mean nothing is actually any different than when I was 39 but I am utterly distraught at becoming 40
It´s like I can suddenly see all the grey hairs and lines that were there before. Ironically I have had several bouts of illness since my birthday
Even worse is that I feel so old to be a Mum especially given that my youngest is only 14 months old...what was I thinking? She´ll be 11 and I´ll be 50 Didn´t I know all this before I had her, of course I did but it is all I can think about now. How come I was able to push it to the back of my mind before...
I honestly feel that all the age is just a number that is spouted is utter bollocks. I don´t want to be old.
Somebody tell me to get a grip
