Nikon D3100 focus driving me nuts…how do I get it focused?

I have been trying to get the camera focused all day long and it's driving me nuts. It was absolutley perfect yesterday and now today it's off focus!

I am shooting a largish stationary subject indoors, the lighting is good. I stand about 6ft back with the use of a tripod and the subject is about 4 ft forward from the wall.

I have tried everything I can think of…also read online but with no success…so has anyone got any suggestions/tips/settings?

these are my settings:
Aperture A
ISO 100
AFS-single servo
AF Area-single point
Metering-center weighted
shutter speed 1
Aperture 5

Thanks
Added (1). The subject is a mannequin by the way…
