Maybe your cold sapped your immune system and you're just slowly recovering. Depression over losing your job could also cause you to feel down and tired. You don't have to be clinically depressed to have some of the symptoms.

Also, if you are not active on a regular schedule, your body sometimes gets sluggish.

If the sleepiness persists, then perhaps a trip to the doctor would be indicated.

Bunch of reasons can lead to fatigue and unwarranted tiredness. Plenty of nutrients that you could be lacking that can contribute to you feeling tired all the time. Stress, yadda yadda, could be a bunch of things. Go to your doctor and explain it to him in fuller detail then what you told us, you haven't given nearly enough evidence for anybody here to give you a accurate answer.
