Address is today’s prompt in #JusJoJan as put forth by another blogger friend of mine, John Holton at The Sound of One Hand Typing. I first met John through the A to Z challenge and he has been very helpful with some of the technical issues I face as a blogger. Plus, since I do typing all the time, the title of his blog intrigued me. You should definitely check his site out.
Anyway, “Address” is the word we are concentrating on today. In my 62-3/4 years on this planet I’ve lived at 9 different addresses. That seems like a lot to me. I’ve had 4 addresses in San Bruno, 3 in Millbrae (although one was actually the same address just a different apartment number), 1 in South San Francisco and 1 in San Francisco.
I don’t remember the house in San Francisco because we moved to San Bruno when I was about 2. The first address I remember is from this house although when I lived there it was much different. There were no houses in the background and the front was lined with rose trees. There was a large front porch. Kind of makes me sad to see how much it has changed.
When I was about 21 I moved into this apartment building. I started on the ground floor and then I married the guy who lived above me and moved in there. We were only married for about six months and then he moved out.

I only remember a handful of my 28 addresses in 44 years. My only real point of interest is that I lived on the same street in two different houses. One in 82-83 and then another one four houses away from that one, 87 to 93.

Wow, that’s a lot of moving! We did that on the same street thing once too, moving from an apartment to a rented house down the street when we were expecting our first. It was a cute house but we had to move again when the third child came along.

I moved a lot and not just counted it for you, had at least 16 addresses in 8 cities of 4 countries. The longest I lived in a place was 12 years when I was a kid. I’m a moving expert now! š

Wow, that’s a lot and 4 countries to boot! I think I was surprised at the number of moves I made because it’s almost always been in the same city, or at least close by. Thanks for sharing, Andi.

I know what you mean, I thought I had more addresses because of the many different places š
