Dog have separation anxiety issues..When you leave,don't make a big deal about it..Give your dog a fav toy or chew,calmly tell your pet goodbye and leave the house..Make sure that your blinds or drapes are closed so that she cant see outside and get distracted to the point of barking.
When you go out the first time,leave for a few mins,then return..don't make a huge fuss over her for the first 2 mins..pretty much ignore her..then gently pet her and praise her
Practice this at least 2-3 times a week...Pretty soon your dog will learn that you WILL return..

it looks like your dog has seperation anxiety. before you leave the house try giving your dog a favorite toy or a large rawhide chew, then slip away when your dog is preoccupied. make suer you NEVER pet your dog when she starts to bark, youthink your calming her down but your really rewarding her for her behavior

Get her a companion dog. For you, taking care of two dogs would not be that much more $ (except for vet. care) - for the dog it's companionship,and no more loneliness.
