She's had a couple more accidents in the house but some of them I don't think were accidental. She has taken to going out of site and peeing. But now that we're on to her, we will be curbing that.

At Aly's suggestion, we moved the crate out of our room last night and kept it downstairs by the stairs so I could still hear her. She whined for a few moments right after we put her in and then I didn't hear her until 3:30am until she barked to let me know she had to go outside. But that was the only time I had to let her out - so that's good.

Last night, my husband said that we could look into getting a pet-sitter. I contacted one this morning and set up an interview with her for Sunday morning. But when my husband found out how much it would cost ($15/visit), he canned that idea really fast. I think he's thinking of asking one of the neighborhood kids if they'd be interested in earning $20 a week and if that doesn't work... I don't know what to do.
