You don't have to do anything (except die!) and hopefully you won't have to do that for a long time ... otherwise what's the point of retiring? More seriously, it sounds like you have a good list of things to keep you interested -- woodworking, family. We tend to advocate things we love, and thus I pitch you on book reading or web surfing (why not bone up on FIRE topics -- assuming you want to or have to manage your own money). Get some background info and (hopefully) good advice before making any irrevocable decisions that could cost you money -- including going to potentially expensive money managers with all their fees and commissions. Lots of ideas to fill up your retirement days. Heck, you can always go back to work even if you want/need to.
