Penn, what are the ages of your kids? I found a babysitter through my city's community center. They have a babysitting class and they have a list of girls who've completed it. That might be one place to start, but I know Friday is soon. Any friends you could ask for a favor? If that doesn't work out, perhaps you could plan something special at home after the kids go the bed.
Maybe even a playful fun evening. Some wine, a board game. You two sound like you're at a place in your R where you could have a conversation about all the things that you like and admire about each other. Just kind of some reconnecting stuff. Make sure that you plan something to keep the topic of the D off, unless of course, you decide to stop it before then.
