Thanks for the responces...

Yeah I'm going low during the day on the basal normally around 4pm, I didnt today it held pretty steady.. I didnt do anything different today than I do any other day, ate the same thing at the same time, same dose of Humalog.. Kind of odd..

I think I'll do what yall suggested, waking up several times during the night and see whats happening.. I might get woke up by a low once every 2 weeks or so, but I'm always high when I wake up getting ready for work.. So it is possible my liver is pulling me out of a low that I'm not feeling.. I dont normally snack at all, but I think I might start having one at 3pm, and before I go to bed... I didnt really even think about what you guys brought up, gives me more to think about rather than just adjusting what I'm taking in for insulin..

Another question while I'm at it.. It's never been brought up between my endo and I.. Today 2 hrs after lunch I checked my BG and it was 87, I felt fine so I just left it being curious to see if it went lower ( expecting the 4pm low ).. Never did.. Checked my BG when I got home tonight at 6pm and it was 94.. I thought about eatting something to bring it up a notch, but I really didnt see the need... Am I alright leaving it like that, or should I try to stay a little above 100?? Really hope I can keep this up though, been really happy with what I've been doing, other than the morning highs and the daytime low's, even then it's still tons better than I've done before..
