<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

A little bit of background:  my mom passed away in 2008 and my dad has a very busy career as a professional musician.  He's 68 now and he feels like he'll slowly get pushed out of his position in the company as music librarian, and that at the same time, they'll attempt to push him out of playing in the orchestra.  Even if none of this happens, he still wanted to retire in his early 70s.  

Background about me that is important:  I still live with him!  We have a great relationship and he's the easiest person to live with.  It's more like having a roomate, and then, you know...he's also my dad.  But I'm moving out in a few years and I want to help him establish activities into retirement!  Living at home means that I'm hyper aware of what he's up to and how he's feeling, and I am worried that moving out will be extremely emotionally difficult for me (and maybe him) if he hasn't already established some activities that make him happy.  

Because of this long & extremely busy career, he only really has friends in the orchestra, and he doesn't even live in the city to spend regular time with those people - he lives in the burbs.  He expressed worry to me this week about having companionship and generally keeping busy after he retires.  

Another important thing to note is that it's been difficult to get him to *really* take care of himself.  He's overweight, and he HAS taken some steps recently that have helped him lose weight, but he's just lazy and he's a nerdy musician so fitness has never interested him to too much.  

Does anyone have any suggestions of activities for him (i.e. something other than bingo nights)?  I already suggested he join my pool this summer (lots of older folks) and he seems interested in that, and that might also help him get in better shape too.  Anything else would be much appreciated because I'm having a little trouble thinking outside the box on this.
<bot>: live w/my dad, he's 68 and gonna retire soon, and I'm going to move out in a few yrs, want to maybe help him find some activities to do that neither of us would have otherwise thought of.
