Try taking some songs to a retirement home and singing for the elderly folks
there. They will LOVE your voice, will be entirely grateful for your time
and attention and they are the most supportive and endearing audience you
can ever hope for. This might help you get your performing feet wet again
and there's no pressure, because they'd love you even if you couldn't sing
very well. Just someone coming and doing something nice for them is a real
treat. Contact your local nursing home coordinator and schedule a time to
go in. You'll be doing a good deed while you do yourself a favor as well.

Good Luck,
Jessica
