Thanks again guys, we did buy a new door lock last week and we only have the keys, so if she leaves, she can get out, but she won't be able to get back in. Its the klind of lock where you can turn the handle from one side but not the other. Being stuck outside in cold weather just once should be enough to cure her.

I found her in her PJs, but when I did the laundry today, the hamper that was in the kitchen had some "nice" clothes tucked into it. (FYI, I have a hamper in the kitchen for muddy sports clothes, dish rags, etc. they used to toss the stuff down the basement steps and after the hundreth time I tripped down the steps over a sock, I added a hamper! LOL) So I have the feeling, she grabbed sweatpants from it, took off the jeans and blouse she was wearing and stuffed it down into the hamper. I usually never find her clothes in there, but always find my son's clothes (he tends to strip as he comes in the door ) so if I found some of his good school clothes I wouldn't have thought anything odd about it... but finding her clothes - especially something I washed Monday night in the hamper Wednesday morning? too much of a coincidence.

I asked my other daughter what she thnks of it and she rolled her eyes and sais "I think she did it because she's trying too hard to convince me that she didn;t" Smart kid my youngest daughter.
