You remind me so much of my uncles's ex-wife whom I am in contact with.
After the divorce from my uncle, she moved out of state, did not know anyone but became involved and busy. She went to museums, joined a bird club, met people at church and befriended some elderly people, etc.
Your keeping busy with different activities is great and you always have something to look forward to.
