Curious George and other random things

Well let me start with Curious George, yes she is at it again. Last week, she got a tube of toothpaste, and took it in G's room and put it all over his Elmo tool bench. Well according to my new taking my house back rules, she got a marble in the naughty jar and got a time out. Next day, she got a full bag of grapes, a full 2lb. bag of carrots, and some raisins. She poured them all over her room. This was not acceptable, she got a spanking. Next day, she got a box of nilla wafers, a box of cars graham crackers, and raisins, and poured them all over G's room. I tried the time out again. We then bought one of those plastic door knob things, you know the ones you have to push in to turn the knob, she hasn't figured this out yet, when she does, we will have to invest in a lock for the pantry. This has stopped this for now. Yesterday, she got the toothpaste again, and put it in her hair and G's hair, I know at this point you are thinking you crazy lady why do you have the toothpaste where this child can get it? Well she climbs up to it to get it out. I don't know if you have ever tried to wash toothpaste out of hair, but it is like gum. It sticks to hair. I had to use conditioner to get the hair soft enough to slide the toothpaste out. But I got it out. that bring us to today, she again got the toothpaste out, and this time she put it on the carpet, the toys, the bed, and the walls in G's room. So I spanked her again, I am not sure how effective this will be but we shall see. As I went to clean up the room, I was moving all of the toys out of the room to take the big ones outside to wash with the hose, and one of them had some kind of liquid in it. I opened it and the liquid was yellow. Yep you guessed it she had peed in G's little plastic work bench. Again I am sure you are thinking "where are you when this is going on"? Last week I was gone the day she did the food in her room, and the day she did the toothpaste in G's room I was in the kitchen cleaning up. The day she did the toothpaste in G's room last week I was in the shower. Yesterday and today I was in the living room on the couch, I have had some sort of stomach thing going on where I was not feeling well, so I was lying down. She knows when it is best to strike. LOL I am open for suggestions if you have some.
Now on to other things, I got the papers from the allergist yesterday, and G has to be off his allergy meds for 10 days before the appointment. 10 days, we have never been off of them that long, so I am not sure how we will do. I cant remember if I said or not, but my step mom is the greatest. She is going to drive from her home outside Houston to Dallas to meet me for the appointments, so she can watch L while G and I are at the Dr's appts. She is a life saver. I couldn't ask for a better step mom. I am truly blessed.
I don't know how many of you watched Oprah today, it was a special on Breast Cancer, with Christina Applegate. It was very touching and informing. If you didn't watch it you need to. I am not sure if you can watch it on her website, but if not it will be on again I am sure when re-runs start. Every women should watch it.
Good news! Friends Of Heroes officially hit the million dollar mark this week. That is a total since 2004. This is great news. Now I need to get with it! My walk is coming up and I have only raised $25.00. You can donate by clicking the Light the night button on the top right of the screen! Thanks for all your help!
Well that is all for tonight, thanks for checking on us. Till next time remember to hug and kiss your family and tell them you love them, today is gone and tomorrow may never come..............

Is it possible that there is someting internal going on with Curious George and it's something more then behavioral? Is it possible that so much change could be affecting her? Maybe she is seeking one on one attention from you, but in a negative way. Maybe she needs to talk to someone so she can figure out why she is doing what she does.
Good luck to you.
