Today’s idiom 1: “Not out of the woods”

Not out of the woods INF : not yet free from difficulties or problems.

Our sales went up last month, but the company is not out of the woods yet.
 The operation went fine, but she’s not out of the woods yet – the next 24 hours will tell us whether or not she’ll recover.
The situation is improving, but we’re not out of the woods yet.
