Busy

swamped
多忙極まりない

Example:
I'm having trouble keeping up the blog since I'm swamped with work.
最近あまりにも忙しすぎて、ブログの更新には追いかけられてない。

Comment:
Swamped can be used in other situations when you are completely covered by something, but it's most often used with work.

busy bee
とても忙しい人

Example:
He was a busy bee the entire day, so cut him some slack.
彼は一日中めちゃ忙しかったよ、だからちょっと勘弁してください。

Comment:
I guess bees are considered busy animals.
