Anyone else super irritable?

My eldest just turned 7 and I’m finding her really hard to be around. My kids are doing brilliantly at school and they are great kids but I find they get on my nerves constantly at home the moment. They just seem noisy and immature and argumentative. They are still into everything, they never seem to chill.
I no longer get evenings to myself as she is not tired, I don’t know what i’m meant do with her at this stage. I knew what to do with them when they were small!
I’ve always enjoyed being a mum till now, even the hard bits.
Is this a common thing right now or a 7yo thing or is it just me?! It’s getting me down.

What time is she going to bed? At 7 I'd be saying she needs to be in her room, PJs on teeth brushed ready for bed by 8, even if she doesn't sleep. She can potter about, read a book, play quietly, but she has to be ready for bed and in her room.
