It has been amazing how good I've been feeling each day, after having been so sick. I'm still coughing, of course, but my energy level has been better than it's been for a long time. While I've considered the possibility that it is due to the contrast between feeling so sick and then not feeling sick, I actually think it is probably due to making a concerted effort to get enough rest so that I don't relapse.

Of course, that being said, I pulled pretty much an all-nighter a day or so ago to get a commitment done, and now I find I'm back in the "just a few hours short of sleep each night"-mode... AND I find that my energy level has dropped back down to mediocre.

So the challenge now is, since I know how AMAZING it felt to have had a full night's sleep, can I finally get back into the habit of GOING TO BED ON TIME ?!?!?!?!?
