I would bet that you have problem with your preasure switch (near the bottom of the big tank) It is either filled with sediment or is dying of old age. Have a plumber (or your friendly neighbor) check it out for you.
If it is defective it would shut the pump at the bottom of the well off before full pressure is achieved.
Been there...done it!

My first thought as well! Over the years I have had to replace my pressure switches far more often than any part of well systems. They are a very inexpensive item, available at Home Depot/Lowe's, etc. and are very easy to replace with simple tools (just make sure you kill the electric power first since you are dealing with 220+ volt wiring!)...
