Having kids certainly can have a impact on couples sex lives. My GF told me her daughter slept in her bed as a young child. She admits now it was not a smart move and it negatively impacted her relationship with her ex husband. Ever since her daughter moved with her father (about high school age) she started to explore her sexual side again.

Well Muffin, you always have New Year's Eve coming up maybe you can enjoy some good sex with wife then too lol. Some champagne along with dancing always tends to lead to some good sex. They say New Year Eve is the most popular day of having sex I wonder why may start the year off with a good bang I know a bad joke lol.

well as you mention if... boss at work told us all we could have half day off on 30th or 31st December... so I opted for 31st Dec. Wife decides to phone up a hotel in the city and we end up staying at a nice hotel.... as we were packing an overnight bag I suggested to wife that she takes one of her sexy scarves... she told me that I could choose one to take... so I chose 2!
We ended up using one during foreplay and intercourse and I was VERY happy! - we even used it again the morning as she wrapped it around my erection.... I had to tell her to take the scarf off my pen!s as I didn't want to ejaculate all over it. (well I did actually, but know wife wouldn't want a cum-soaked scarf)

It'd be hard for there to be less around my place...

That was the case for me to when I was still with my wife, but it still felt like less because the holidays and special occasions make we want it more. Holidays can be more stressful for some, but I think most people have an over inflated sense of how busy they are and don't properly prioritize their time. I can't imagine too many scenarios where a couple can't afford at least an hour a week for physical intimacy. Sex should be a stress reliever, not a stress inducer. I don't understand people that view sex as yet another obligation and choose to not try to fit it into their schedule. Exercise and sex should at least be in the top 10 musts along with eating, sleeping, meeting obligations such as work, caring for the kids and pets, etc. Unfortunately, too many people don't give exercise and sex the priority they deserve.
