Read thought leadership / graphs, do puzzles, and most importantly, scheduling time to actually think and let your mind wander. Also, my mental sharpness improves vastly when I keep my body healthy with diet / exercise.

Last night BF and I went out to dinner since neither of us wanted to cook. We were having an enjoyable evening and ran into a former co-worker and her husband who I have not seen since before COVID. Ex co-worker made this odd scene about my "glow up" and even posted to social media a picture she insisted both couples take.
Anyone else ever find themselves in a similar situation?
