"At sixes and sevens" means to be in confusion and disarray. It is used in British English rather than American.
It is very old, but nobody is quite sure about the phrases exact origin.
"I have so much going on this week on my schedule. I'm at sixes and sevens."

fdmaxey is correct. The phrase is old and you won't hear it very often.
