I Always Feel Like Someone is Watching Me

Have you all seen those Geico commercials where the wad of cash is following poor unsuspecting people around, almost stalking. Well, that is kind of happening to me right now. Eileen is going through a weird episode right now. She follows me around the house. If I get up from the computer and she is playing in the t.v room, she gets up too and follows me. She follows me from the kitchen to the laundry area. She follows me into the garage. No toy or cartoon can keep her attention enough from following me. I turn around and she is there. I have tripped over her a few times. The worst part is when she doesn't know where I am, she starts crying and yelling..."Mom...MOOOM!" I am starting to get worried. I try to tell her where I am going but even when I do she still follows me there. I try to acknowledge her fear and talk her through it.
This all started when I went to Baltimore for a week last month. Rich was home alone with and was complaining that Eileen was always at his side. I thought he was exaggerating but now it is happening to me. I think Eileen is afraid I am going to leave again. Just needed to get it out!
