I've only been retired since April. Making friends is super easy. There is more opportunity you be busy. I prefer moderation but my younger wife has a bit more go-go than me. With many friends, comes many invites. After 40+ years of 60-100 hr. work weeks, I'm fine slowing way down. I used to hike, travel, and be a shutterbug before marriage. Picked up a new digital camera to replace my old dust collecting film gear, going to grab some $$$ lenses on Black Friday, and do more outdoors. Spending a lot of time learning Digitial, which is more like bulk data collection on a sensor, and postprocessing it into a picture. That's one club I need to join asap!
Rather than ramble, yes, you can be as busy as you let yourself get. I have no problem canceling anything if I start to feel pushed. Don't rush!!!! Life isn't the thing you want to be first to the "finish line"!
