I am planning on retiring this July and I have been making a list titled "things I will not miss" to help me on those days when I am missing my career! I think what you are going through is a normal right of passage and the only thing you can do is take it one day at a time, change your mindset from one of looking back to one of looking forward. Bloom where you are planted, create your new normal, start each day with your own plan (enjoy the freedom), pick one new place to go explore, pick one new thing to try each day until you find your passion. Why not start a club for recent retirees? Adjusting to Life as a Retiree (ATLAAR) sounds like a purpose calling your name to use your organization skills to lead.
