At the moment... artex ceilings. Also the concrete patio.
I've had nuts hypo s this evening. So low it wouldn't register on the meter!! Am struggling to get high enough to sleep but we'll get there, eventually.

Question is, do I take my usual basal tonight or skip it?
 
@Postitnote When I've been very low before bed, I've skipped basal before. It's had two different results. One was that my bg level went very high overnight. The other where it stayed relatively normal. In either case, I still set an alarm to get me up in the night to test.

Hope your decision worked out.
