Is she going to kill me?

Blessings on all.
This dream is from yesterday.. during one of my rare naps.
Dream took place in my mother-in-law's house. I was assisting & giving direction to someone to rearrange the furniture in the living room. The Living room was huge and tastefully decorated and furnished with antiques.
The project was to move a dining room table and the 6 chairs to a place directly underneath a chandelier. I helped to move the table set then stepped back to eye-ball the positioning. I told the person to move the table a fraction of an inch more so that it was directly aligned beneath the light fxiture. A second, smaller table and chair set also had to be moved to a different area.
The second set had 3-4 chairs and had to be moved onto a right (West)wall and positioned underneath a window. This table set appeared to be more casual/cozy although still an antique. The project had to be complete before my mother-in-law returned home.
I left the room to attend to something and when I returned, I discovered that the person moving the tables had moved several accessories, vases and ornamental pieces. The living room looked so disorderly. I was upset because I couldn't remember exactly where all the pieces had been. In addition, I didn't have the gift/talent for placing the vases & ornamental pieces in attractive spots. I felt overwhelmed and under great pressure to correct the problem before M-I-L arrived home.
Scene shift: I'm walking back into the living room through the Sun Room entrance. Mother-in-law is sitting in a rocking chair directly in front of the entrance. She's furiuously rocking back and forth. She had a large butcher's knife in her hand as she had been preparing supper. She was verbally violent; listing all my wrongdoings and demanding an explanation but not giving me an opportunity to answer. She was waving and shaking the knife in my direction.
My eye's watched the knife as I wondered if she would jump up and stab me. I very slowly backed away from her as far as I could while waiting for a break in her tirade so that I could speak or explain the mix-up of the living room arrangement. I also wanted to be able to make a quick dash for the door if I had to run from a knife attack. Her furious face was terrifying. I heard my father-in-law's say, Now Mother, as he attempted to cool down M-I-L (IRL he's with the Lord).
I awoke soaked in perspiration.
Mother-in-law appeared younger in the dream- about the age she was when I first met her.
Thank you in advance,
connie
