Volunteer- it's the best thing if you can find the thing that grabs you.

The best idea I can suggest is to join a few hobby groups. That will give a focus to the days when you are going to the meetings, You will meet new people there - some will become new friends, others will be forgotten as soon as you go home, but while you are there you will hear conversation about all kinds of things. There is no need to worry about being committed for ever, as the term is usually only a few weeks long, you are free to stop going at any time if something turns out not to be something you want to do a lot of, but it might prove to be your next obsession!

Easter is a time for new beginnings, Spring is on the way, sunshine, lambs, bluebells, bursting hedgerows, baby birds,
at last, as its been a long wet winter OP, many of us are
looking forward to warmer weather and lighter mood/clothes/
food/relationships with others.

Sometimes I feel as though I am in a state of limbo, waiting for something to happen, blaming the rain for inactivity, I doubt you are alone in how you are feeling if this helps, in your period of adjustment and transition.

Most aspects of life are covered here, make yourself at home
and welcome.

Hi, I’m new to this group. Recently retired and finding most days just feel empty, like I have no purpose. Any suggestions?
