Help Please! 6

Thanks guys. It certainly has been a long, strange trip. And it's not over yet. We've still got a ways to go.

Last week at MC we both acknowledged that we seem to be falling back into old routines. Not as bad as pre BD, but not really working towards stuff as much as we did a few months ago. Maybe settling into a new norm is a more accurate description?

As far as sex, yeah, that's till frustrating. She's brought up the birth control issue once or twice before over the last year or two, but I kinda assumed that was just what was up next on her 'not wanting to have sex' rolodex. I'm sure there's something to it, but still seems like an excuse. I'm pretty damn squimish about a vasectomy, and just don't think it's worth it if we're only having sex once a month or something.

But I guess overall things are looking pretty good. That being said, a college friend of hers is getting married next month, and in a few weeks all the girls from grad school (and W) are going to Florida for a long weekend. She booked the flight and stuff last summer, when we were on the verge of D. I guess I'm fine with it. It's always tough being a single parent for a few days when we and our kid isn't used to it, but we'll manage. She said that because of this trip, I should take a trip somewhere with my friends. Maybe I will, maybe not. I hate the idea of 'separate' vacations, but it may not be a bad idea somewhere down the road
