If you are really being asked to do more than you can in the time you have, stop doing it all.
I'm quite serious. If you've told your manager that you can't get it all done, then you need to stop getting it all done. Don’t kill yourself to finish. Work quickly and diligently and show her that you are doing your best, but don't stay late or get frantic and do a half-ass job. Leave the things you cannot finish, unfinished.
Leave short notes telling the next people who come in what is not done. Then have another conversation with your manager and tell her that you really appreciate her faith in you, but that you just can't quite manage everything she has asked you to do in the time you have.
Offer simple solutions: Like one or two of your tasks being the next person’s job. Or ask to close to customers for an hour while you do one of the major tasks. Be open to new ways to solve the problem.
It’s perfectly fair and right of your manager to push you and change the expectations, but it’s also okay for you to push back (without being lazy and just not doing things out of spite) and show her that those new expectations don’t quite work. She doesn't sound like she dislikes you, so it's just time to really say "No. We need to work togeather and come up with a slightly different plan. I can't manage this one."
It's either that, or you just go on being miserable.
