"There's Never A Road Without A Turning"...

No situation in life stays the same forever.

Sidebar: Now again my mother had a somewhat similar idiom she used but it was "There's Never A Road So Long Without A Curve" and her meaning was that tho you're sailing through life without any hardships or obstacles at some point you will without a doubt encounter some!

"Given The Third Degree"...........

If someone is given the third degree, they are put under a great deal of pressure and intimidation to force them to tell the truth about something.

"Throw The Book At Someone"

If you throw the book at someone, you punish them as severely as possible.

"In The Weeds" ...............

If you've ever worked in the restaurant industry you'll know this means completely overwhelmed with diners' orders and unable to keep up with the pace. It also can mean totally immersed or preoccupied with the details or complexities of something.
