The big thing for me is to figure out if it's a deal breaker.
Yeah. It's a big one. NMMNG talks about this, I believe.

She keeps complaining about how her stressful job is wrecking her. She'll be quitting her job in the next couple of months or so.
I'd tell her to hang on to her job, she might need the income.

I wonder if her drive will return. I wonder if I have the patience to wait...
This is going to sound harsh, but her sex drive is NOT your problem, and because you have made it your problem, you are actually considering waiting... and this is part of The Problem.
You two are empty nesters now. You've raised your kids. I know you don't want to break apart your family, and it wouldn't be good, regardless... it isn't like you have little ones, and your wife can't take care of herself. I admire the loyalty you have to your family and your wife. It is time she step up to the plate and return some of that loyalty and respect. She won't do it, though, if you allow her not to.
Boy. That sure does look nice and tidy and simple, doesn't it? I face my own issues. I'm a woman and in a bit different sitch than you, but. No matter how well I can preach this stuff, it isn't easy. I always go back to... "Who Am I, and What Do I Want To Be?" It keeps things simple for me.
