What Should I Do To Prepare For An Empty Nest?

I have teenagers who will be leaving in a few short years. I'm a stay-at-home mom and they've been my focus since they were babies. One enters college in two years and the other in four.

I feel like I need to find outside interests a little bit now so that I will not feel so alone when they are gone. Should I begin now looking for a little bit of volunteer work or part time job that interests me so that when they are gone, I will not feel completely lost? Thank you!!
