I miss my 55-250mm lens

This photo was taken with my 18-55mm lens and cropped/enlarged afterwards. The focus isn't as sharp as I'd like, but it will have to do until I can either rent or purchase another longer lens.

I just finished my 2nd day at the new job and it's tough being at a new place. Change is tough. I am fortunate that the people are nice, as it makes the change a bit easier.

On the topic of change... some things and some people (including myself) never change. I had a difficult conversation with a family member this evening and it just made me feel that things are always about her - what about me?!

And I'm starting to wonder if I can ever really change certain things about myself. There are several things in my life that I would like to change, but maybe it's a matter of taking things one step at a time. Yesterday for most of the day I ate healthy food and went to the gym for a short bike ride, but then ate poorly in the evening. Today my diet was somewhat healthy, but I didn't make it to the gym.

I hope I have more hopeful things to share in the coming days. I'm just trying to get through this first week at my new job one day at a time.
