Yarn audit

tropeLast night I stayed up too late, what with the data entry and the murder mystery, and woke up disoriented at a college-student kind of hour. I had a vague memory of a nightmare about dusting. Then, the vague dream came back to me in force just a few minutes ago:
For whatever reason, our new CEO (and her child) had moved into my household. She had been a mostly non-intrusive guest, but after a week or two she left me a note on our chalkboard stating that there would be someone arriving that evening to inspect the house and go through the yarn. I was to clean up the household and make sure the yarn was accessible and organized.
I panicked a little, looked around at all the dust, considered dusting using one of the balls of yarn, and then realized that would be more trouble than it was worth. I found the ball of shiny red yarn I've been searching for and began swatching with it. Then I realized there was no way I was going to get everything done inside of ninety minutes but that I needed to make a significant dent in the problem before she returned and got angry with me. I kept making piles of "give away" yarn but couldn't ever get them out of the house.
I have such a boring brain... all the dreams are pretty transparently about my areas of anxiety. Couldn't I get a good mystery to decode once in a while?
