Periodic axis shifts during long prints on MK4

I've been experiencing some axis shifts during longer prints (>24 hours).  A couple weeks ago, I had a 3mm shift along the 'Y' axis after which I adjusted my belt tension.  Last night I experienced a 14mm shift along the 'X' axis after 18 hours.  Both artifacts were on the same .bgcode file.  The file was sliced with Prusa slicer 2.8.1.  In both cases, there was one shift and then everything printed normally again.  If I follow this with less complex prints they all seem to finish without issue.

Any tips or ideas would be appreciated.

Just to add information, the pullies are all tight.  There is no indication of slippage and they were still tight before and after I reset them.
