Day 8-9: ACL Fest Grass Sprouts Up in Just a Day

I started to post Day 8 yesterday and my internet connection was so slow I fell asleep waiting for it to load the pictures! That is somewhat of an indication of how my day went yesterday.  So here are today's and yesterday's views of the grass.

Day 8 and 9 of the ACL Fest grass growth. Not all the blades are growing as fast so it is looking a little ragged. I gave it a good trim today. I think it is happier. It has a great smell when you cut the blades, makes me think of being in a field of freshly cut grass in the morning when it is all dewy. I hope I can keep my grass growing all year, I 'm not the best green thumb.  If anyone else has the ACL Fest Grass, tell me how it is growing!

Day 7: ACL Fest Grass Sprouts Up in Just a Day

I decided to not cut the grass today, I'm going to see how it does tomorrow. And I am going to slow down the watering so it doesn't grow like a weed! Here is what it looks like today.

Top 20 Green Jobs

Green jobs might be rare these days due to the economy but recent data shows green/eco friendly jobs are on the rise. Varying skill levels are needed as well, from executives to manage green initiatives to auditors to conduct green audits.

"The leading job tiles show the breadth of green positions across the economy," says Rona Fried, Ph.D., CEO of SustainableBusiness.com, which runs Green Dream Jobs. "Most people think of energy auditing and renewable energy as green jobs, but leading non-profit organizations are major employers, and people needed to run projects and analyze data are in demand, as well as those in sales and business development. Engineers are also in demand for renewable energy operations and even in this economy, we're still seeing many job openings in green building."
