Great... Currently, 39 is pummeling me and has me on the ropes. It doesn't get any better?
Nope. Not till after after the kids are grown, the mortgage is paid for, and you can retire.
(Or so I’ve been told)
Yes, when you hit 65 you can get senior citizen discounts at the movies!
It gets worse. I just turned 44 and not only do I require more stimulation now days but I recently had to get glasses so I can read. :-(
Two years ago, when I was 39, I saw my 10 year old’s skateboard laying on the side of the driveway. Remembering my teen years I decided to give it a try for old times sake. I went down the driveway 4 times with no problem and felt it was coming back to me. Feeling a little cocky I decided to “try something”....
I ended up doing a belly flop in the driveway with my arms slapping the blacktop. I ended up with both elbows broken. It took me six weeks to feel OK. A whole year to feel normal again.
Now when I look at the kids skateboard all I see is the symbol of my lost youth. I would like to try it again but visions of myself trying to wipe my a$$ with two broken elbows keep haunting me.

Good luck. I turned forty last year and as determined as I was, saying it was just a number, it's been the worst year of my life. You just have to ride it out.
