Pumpkin-Patching It With My Son

Posted on October 21, 2011October 21, 2011by Island Mom

Like my backyard fall décor? This is so not my backyard, I’m sorry to say. My backyard needs a little more tending than this, as we are learning that things appear to grow faster on the marsh than they do on the ocean. And, we do like pumpkins. But not this much. Oh, and my […]

What Pain Does To My Brain

Posted on October 12, 2011October 12, 2011by Island Mom

Over the weekend, I threw out my back. The recovery process has been slow going, so here I am, sitting in bed with a heating pad, going over old pictures, wallowing in how this week has not gone as planned. My thoughts are aimless for the most part, but for some reason, I keep coming […]

An Invitation: Come Follow Me Along The Carolina Coast

Posted on October 11, 2011October 11, 2011by Island Mom

So here’s the thing. North and South Carolina have like a gazillion little islands dotting the coastline. Okay, maybe not a gazillion. But, there are quite a few. Some areas, like the Outer Banks and Myrtle Beach, you’ve probably heard of. Others, like Carrot Island and Yoknapatawpha Island, may be new to you. Okay, I […]
