Go out on a limb Raining cats and dogs

Feeling under the weather It is a piece of cake Feeling under the weather

Getting out of hand I’m all ears

I’m in hot water I put my foot in my mouth

Bite your tongue That cracks me up

We are on the same page I am in the doghouse

Have you lost your mind? I am tongue tied

Take a hike Give me a hand

Crying over spilt milk Turning over a new leaf

Burn a candle at both ends You’re pulling my leg

Straight from the horse’s mouth Seeing eye to eye Straight from the horse’s mouth
