Stop whining and find something to do.

I am pretty into Downton Abbey. A few months ago, a girl in my neighborhood announced that she had a way to view season 3, even though it didn't start airing in the US until this month. I figured I would wedge my way into this social group and quickly watch the first two seasons so I could watch season 3 with the neighborhood ladies.

I loved it from the start, and adore Maggie Smith's character. Her zingers seriously make my day. In last night's, Edith was moping (won't tell you why, in case you haven't seen it yet) yet again, and Violet said:

You are a woman with a brain and reasonable ability. Stop whining and find something to do.

Amen. I think she would have said something similar to the Drops of Awesome lady, before her revelation that she isn't a loser. Stop whining!

I guess I have officially become my parents, because I can hear them in my head when I say, stop whining!

It isn't so bad. We can do more than we think we can. We need to stop whining. I think I'll tape this to my mirror.
