square something away AmE

If I was going to work for her, we needed to get business squared away.

It took me six months to get things squared away.

It didn't really take very long to get everything all squared away.

Now there is just one more little thing to take care of, then we will be all squared away.

"Give me this morning to get things squared away and I'll be ready for you."

We've got the rest of the afternoon to get squared away.

"So you shouldn't have any kids until we get yourself squared away and find out what's going on, right?"

"It took rather a time to get everyone squared away."

I should have the situation here completely squared away within the next five to six hours.

"But we're squared away to start out fresh for another year."
