Sleep. I know that's weird in our crowd, but it's true.

Also, when really tired, not make decisions.

Get on the couch with the blanket that our cats love, and AWAIT THE CUDDLES!

Put on some music via Pandora (http://www.pandora.com) that I know will keep me moving through the day.

grab a glass of wine and a book and snuggle down in a corner of the sofa.

Drink coffee.
Go for walks.

I'll echo "sleep".

But if that's not an option -- and during the first six months or so of recovery I was tired all the time, which kinda made it not an option in a serious way -- I like to get very methodical about what I need to get done and what of that is most important, and just chug through it. I won't be into it, I won't enjoy it, I won't be creative, I won't be inspired... but at least I'll get it done.

Conversely, if it isn't important enough to merit that treatment, I need to rethink whether it's more important than sleep.

When I'm tired, I like to stay awake just to enjoy the sensations of tiredness.
