Several old saying that I heard my Grandma and Mom use over the years as I was growing up.
Age before beauty
Alive and kicking
A miss is good as a mile
Another day, another dollar
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
Apple pie order
A rolling stone never gathers any moss
A stitch in time saves nine
A willful waste will be a woeful want
Bad egg
Barking up the wrong tree
Be level headed
Been hung out to dry
Better half
Better late then never
Between a rock and a hard place
Bite the dust
Bone dry
Bread winner
Bury the hatchet
Butter up
Butter wouldn't melt in their mouth
By hook and crook
By the skin of your teeth
Can't see the forest for the trees
Carrying a grudge
Chew the fat
Clean as a whistle
Clear as day
Cold as kraut
Cool as a cucumber
Cost an arm and a leg
Cream of the crop
Crooked as a barrel of fish hooks
Cross that bridge when you get to it
Cross your fingers
Didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday
Dime a dozen
Don't bite the hand that feeds you
Don't care one iota
Don't depend on a broken stick
Don't get above your raising
Don't have a leg to stand on
Don't put all your eggs in one basket
Don't rock the boat
Down in the dumps
Down in the mouth
Fair to middling'
Fair weather friends
Fall head over heels
Feather your own nest
Fit as a fiddle
Flying by the seat of their pants
Fresh as a daisy
From the old school
Getting cold feet
Getting too big for your britches
Give a lick and a promise
Goes in one ear and out the other
Going against the grain
Got an ax to grind
Got a chip on his shoulder
Go the extra mile
Got the short end of the stick
Got the big head
Got your feathers ruffled
Have to take the bitter with the sweet
Hit the hay
Hit the roof
Hit the sack
Hold your tater
I can't never did anything
In a pickle
If the shoe fits, wear it
In a heap of trouble
In the nick of time
It come a gully washer
It's easy as pie
Jump from the frying pan into the fire
Just a drop in the bucket
Just a hoop and a holler away
Keeping up with the Jones's
Keep your hands clean
Keep your nose clean
Keep your nose in your own business
Knee deep in trouble
Know which side your bread is buttered on
Like arguing with a fence post
Like looking for a needle in a haystack
Looks like they've been run through the wringer
Mend fences
Milk for all it's worth
Needs to be brought down a notch or two
Nip it in the bud
No fool like an old fool
No news is good news
No rest for the weary
Not worth a plug nickel
Old as the hills
Once in a blue moon
Out of sight, out of mind
Over the hill
Pick of the litter
Pinching pennies
Pulling the wool over your eyes
Putting words in my mouth
Put yourself in their shoes
Robbing Peter to pay Paul
Robbing the cradle
Rotten to the core
Run of the mill
Save for a rainy day
Sight for sore eyes
Sink or swim
Sitting on pins and needles
Sour grapes
Stand on your own two feet
Stretching dollars
Stretch the truth
That's the last straw
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree
The hand that rocks the cradle
The squeaky wheel gets the grease
That's water under the bridge
The whole ball of wax
The whole kit and caboodle
The whole nine yards
Tie the knot
Toe the mark
Too lazy to lift a finger to help out
Two faced
Under the weather
Up the creek without a paddle
Viewing just one side of the story
Walking on eggs
Walk in their shoes for awhile
Walk the straight and narrow
Wallow in self pity
Waste not, want not
Was took lock, stock, and barrel
Watch what you wish for
Watch your mouth
Wears their feelings on their sleeve
Well is a deep subject
Wet behind the ears
What goes around comes around
When it rains, it pours
Woe is me
Wouldn't work in a pie factory tasting pies
You can't live on bread alone
You can't turn back the clock
Young at heart
Zilch, zero, nothing
