| When it rains it pours | everything goes wrong together |
| Go the extra mile | do more than expected |
| on the fence | can't decide |
| Bite your tongue | Stop talking |
| water under the bridge | in the past - done & over |
| You are what you eat | eat well, feel good |
| It's all in your head | you just think it |
| Add fuel to the fire | make a bad situation worse |
| beat around the bush | don't say it directly |
| icing on the cake | even better than expected |
| Keep your chin up | keep a positive attitude |
| Feeling under the weather | feel sick |
| a marked improvement | noticeable improvement |
| a near miss | got very close |
| new kid on the block | new kid |
| a speedy recovery | get well fast |
| an open and shut case | mystery easily solved |
| a slam dunk | a sure thing |
| better late than never | better to do it late than never |
| day in and day out | all the time |
| smell something fishy | something is suspicious |
| haste makes waste | doing something to fast may be a waste of time |
| if push comes to shove | if there are no more options |
| just in the nick of time | just in time |
| money talks | sometimes people will do things just for money |
| right on the money | exactly right |
| out of sight out of mind | if you don't see it, you'll forget it |
| go to bat for someone | back someone up |
| polished it off | ate it all |
| popped into my mind | thought of it |
| Pull the wool over his eyes | fool someone |
| spill the beans | tell the secret |
| take a crack at it | try it |
| take the plunge | just do something |
| tighten my belt | spend less money |
| wash my hands of it | won't have anything to do with it |
