Welcome to the Forums!
Her behavior is unacceptable. Nip it in the bud now, or she may soon dictate places you are (or are not) allowed in your own home.
Do not allow her on your bed or furniture. Stay above her (don't lay on the floor with her for the timebeing). Eat before she does and make her sit before you give her her food. Make her wait before walking out the door....you exit first. We tend to overlook little things, but they can play a huge difference on how our dog views us.
Your dog revolves around your life......not the other way around.
