I give you the answer to two or three:
A hard nut to crack = Difficile à cerner, à comprendre ( quelqu'un de...)
Look for a needle in a haystack = chercher une aiguille dans une botte de foin, pratiquement impossible de résoudre le problème ... peu de chance de trouver la solution .
In a nutshell = enfermer dans sa coquille, dans son monde ?..
Take sth to heart = prendre à coeur, accorder bcp d'importance
Go out of one's mind = sorti de l'esprit, oublié ...
Now I leave the place to the others . Good night .

full of beans = full of nonsens ?
go nuls = égaliser?(à vérifier)
not all roses (jamais entendu) : pas tout le monde???
in a nutshell : dans sa coquille = renfermé
words failed me = les mots me manquent
be in the red pull someone's socks up (là, il y a 2 expressions à trouver!) be in someone's shoes : se mettre à la place de quelqu'un
take st to heart (cf minouche 15)
go out of one's mind : se mettre en colère, se fâcher
qui aide???

here are my personal answers:
- full of beans : plenty of money
- go nuts : go crazy, go mad
- in a nutshell : in short , in brief, to cut a long story short
- words fail me : les mots me manquent
- take someone's word for it : croire qqn sur parole
- take smthg to heart: prendre qqchose à coeur
- go out of one's mind : sortir de l'esprit
ex: it went out of my mind : ça m'est sorti de la tête
voila !!!!
ciao
