I'm 39. (No, really!)
Every day, I wake up quite achey and stiff at around 7PM. Energy is OK, I get the kids ready and packed off to school and playgroup, and then come home and put the washing out, tidy up as much as possible and start work at around 9.30, 9.45, by which time I'm exhausted and really need the sit down.
At 3PM I'm OK again and get DS from school, then tidy up the house (again), make dinner and get the kids to bed. By then, I feel absolutely exhausted, unable to do any more tidying up (even though the house is a mess becuase of the kids) and really feel the need to sit down again. By 9.30PM I'm having difficulty keeping my eyes open.
Is this normal? Am I a physical wreck or a normal almost 40 year old?
