Shouldn't Complain but I'm so lonely

I'm in good health, have a loving partner, a wonderful step-daughter, and two fantastic sons.
I don't work, though I am trying to start my own business buying,painting & selling furniture.
I can go days some times without talking to any adult, except my partner, but he works away a lot.
Step-daughter and eldest son are leaving for Uni in Sept and youngest son starts secondary school in the same month so I'll have more time on my hands !!!!!!
I do have a workshop where I paint my furniture and share it with two friends, well work colleagues really .
I really miss having girlfriends, someone to text or chat to. I haven't been out for a girls night out for about a year.
My partner and I are both divorced and lost a lot of friends during the process even though the splits from each others husband/wife wasn't our fault we seem to have come off worst.
To make it worst youngest ds is being bullied at school, very much as I was, and I feel awful taking him to school each morning, but he reassures me that it's OK and that the bullies are now ignoring him, but I still hate the thought of him being unhappy.
All I want to do is run away, to take my ds and teach him at home away from everyone, but then that would just make my loneliness worse !!!!!!!
What am I going to do ? Sorry for rant :)

Talk to your partner. How old is your youngest? Are they any groups you can join? Any chance of getting a few hours of paid employment, local pub etc?
