A spay is the equivalent to a human female hysterectomy. It is normal for her to be tired and there to be some swelling at the incision. Unless there is any puss, bleeding or severe swelling, it should be just fine. You did the right thing, she will be much happier being spayed in the long run. Hang in there.
