What does estar liado mean?

ExpressionColoquial

to be up to your eyes in it

Busy, snowed under, or tangled up in something complicated. Liado con el trabajo is the standard answer to «how's everything?». It can also mean seeing someone, so context does the work.

Esta semana estoy muy liado con el trabajo.

Busy, and no details offered.
