balls in the air 

Normally a juggling metaphor that is part of the reference to “too many balls in the air” referring to the idea that there’s a lot happening all at once, but can also refer to a person who is gutless and whose balls have fallen off and floated away.

I was talking to the boss the other day when I looked up and saw his balls in the air, just slowly floating away into the sky above us like little hairy helium balloons!
