For me the hardest part was letting go of our night cup conversations. I just didn't know what to do instead. Here are tthree things that worked for me. The best one was knitting. I was never very good at that, but I picked a couple of magazins and with a help of a friend was able to create my very first sweaterpretty soon. I find knitting very peaceful and comforting and it's addictive too. You can make lovely things for your 6years old (say, start with a sweater for her Teddy), which will keep her happy and you busy.
Then I would take our dog and go on a long walk.
And then gym, of course. I went and bought the most expensive membership, the one I always wanted but always thought I can't afford it. It is so good that instead of my regular 3 hours per week I spend now 6 and more working out. It is also a great place to meet people.
It must be awfully hard to GAL with a H in the house. I didn't want my H to leave this Xmas (he was with us for 3 weeks) but It was liberating when he was finally gone... I fouind it so hard not to cry in front of him...
