You have the mountain appalachia accent (Thats me!!), mid-lands (which tends to sound more like georgia), and Charlestonian accent which tends to be the strongest in the African American community and it is a mixture of English and Gullah (the language of the early slaves).

I have a friend from Lancaster, SC. Is that near you? She once said something about a "spodder" and it took me the longest time to figure out that she meant "spider"! She sounds absolutely adorable though! (is it insulting to refer to a 35 year old mother of two as adorable???)
