Mountain men are born tough! No need for a month in rehab, when I can sleep just as good all day long on my recliner as I can theirs.
Still no great get up and go, coming from me, so don't expect me around a lot for the next month or more. Just imagine me flopped in a recliner and complaining over not being able to sleep, whenever I'm awake, and you have my schedule for the next month.
The first step on the road to recovery! It will be fine!
The constant tiredness will get better with each passing day. The right opportunity to read a book that is not about Basic. If you are interested in history, especially American history, I can recommend a book: Battle Cry of Freedom - The Civil War Era, James M McPherson, 1988. A very good book about America and its history.
Of course I have the German edition, for the original my English is not good enough. The German edition, if anyone is interested: Für die Freiheit sterben
All the best!
Another good one about that war is "Co. Aytch" by Samuel R. Watkins,

It's a firsthand account by a soldier who found himself fighting for the wrong side, and it's fascinating (and quite horrific at points)!
