I have lived in this house for about twenty seven years.

This is my fourth place the first one being where I grew. I left that place to pursue my career and then got married having stayed at my sister's till I got married. Each place that I shifted from was to get a bigger place but the one I am now living is my dream home, designed by me.

My ex-husband was in the military (Canadian). That was quite an experience for me as when I married him I was green as far as military life goes. I didn't know anybody in the military, did not grow up in a military family and did not live anywhere near a military base. In the 24 years we were married we moved 12 times. By the time my oldest son was 3 years old he lived in 3 different provinces. At first I thought it was a great adventure, getting to see the country. After about the 5th posting it was more like Ohhhhh, not again! I now live in a condo that I share with my current husband and we have been here for 3 years this month. I plan on having only one more move in my life and that is to my place of retirement as we plan on retiring closer to family.

hubby and i moved into our present house just after our youngest daughter was born (we have 2 girls) and so we have lived here almost 15 years and will be celebrating our 25th here too in october! i imagine that we will have to move sooner or later because we live in a 5 floor townhouse and i have bad knees.

I've lived in this house for 10yrs. I moved alot as a kid. I too wasn't a military kid but we too moved everytime the rent went up we were on assistance with our rent and section 8. I think the longest I lived in one spot other than in this house was maybe 5yrs and all rentals except this house.

Hi Gerty, I have lived in my house for thirty years. I don't remember living anywhere else. Have a great day!

My parents moved many time so that a house that i lived longest is 5 years. When i was 17, i went to the city for my studying and i just move and move every year. Right now i don't remember how many a house that i rent already. And i know i have to move and move more...i think i wont move when i have my own house only...but i don't know when at all...

Hi there, GardenGerty. :) I've lived with my parents until 2007, then I moved out. Had to return in 2009, but moved out again. I've moved places since 2007, from Manila, back to Iloilo then Boracay and now in Kalibo, Aklan. I'm not sure where the wind will take me next, but I'd hope this is "home" for now. :)

I have lived in my house for over thirty years..Since I have grown older though I truly wished it were a one story...mine is an old two story and personally I am getting sick of the steps...and when I try to paint or whatever I feel like its a struggle....the old walls...are crooked...the floors slop. The house itself is over a hundred years old....the best part though is that the house is paid for!

The first house we lived in was near my father's work, near the base as he was in military. We lived there for more 16 years! Then the owner of the land said he will use the land and we had no choice but to move out, the land is now owned by us and we are now living here for more than 12 years as well.. it is my parent's house though, i am planning on going to look for a house and lot so i could have somethign to call my own.. my parents still did not announce as to whom the house will go to..in the future that is. There is only me and my brother..

When we were recently in the USA, I was surprised by just how many people there were who had family ties in the military! It was shocking! It seemed like half the USA was military! We lived in our last house for ten years, but before that I moved pretty much every year at least, since I moved out of home at 21 years old. When I was a child though, we lived in the same house the whole time, which my parents are still living in today. We have been in this house for almost a year and plan to stay one more. We will probably move again around June 2013.

From birth up to Grade III that's 10 solid years, I remember living in a one-story affair wood and tin-roofing house in the town of San Sebastian, Samar with my parents and 5 siblings. Then- because of the call of service- the family settled in Paranas, also in Samar, a place across the sea about 2-hour ride northward. Parents built a 2-story affair house for us 8 occupants in all in Paranas till 2 of us children got married. A criminal dispute between a family neighbor and ours broke up in Paranas, forcing us to move 23 kilometers northwest to Catbalogan, Samar, where we built another 2-story home for the family. In October 10, 1979, I declared independence from my parents and got my very own family settled permanently in BLISS, Catbalogan where we plan to spend the sunset of our lives. We begot 5 children who now have families of their own and 3 of them are likewise situated in BLISS in their own homes,

I've lived with my parents in the same house for 28 years. It's an ancestral house - owned by the generation ahead of me, made prior to the World wars and handed down to my dad. And, this time it's been handed down to my brother. I live now in a different city (I have moved twice since I first moved out), but, every now and then (okay, every month), I go back (well, not in the same house, but in a neighboring house built by my parents which is intended to be mine eventually).

I have lived in Austin, Texas since 1972. Austin was a small city of about 150,000 when I came. Now it has a metro population of about a million. It has grown up to become a very pretty, exciting, cosmopolitan, affluent, dynamic and diverse community with lots to do and a good economy. I am bored out of my mind. I have burned out on the city and am looking to relocate. I plan on leaving in about three or four more years. The only thing keeping me here is my part time job which I have been at over 20 years. At 67 years old, there are not a lot of job opportunities out there for me and I need plus like the extra money.

I lived in the same place with my family from the age of 5 to 18. We moved three times before that. I left that house when I graduated from high school, and moved to our capital to study and then work there. I moved to a new place almost every year... last year I moved three times when I was abroad. I'm at my family's house again now but will move again soon... I never felt at home anywhere else. I hope I can settle down and have my own home some day.

Hi Garden, I have been in my home for years! And thats the longest for me. Besides when I was younger. I lived in one place for about 15 years. I think anyways, but my dad lives in his parents house now and thats been in the family for over 50 years. There was once talk about selling the house and I really dont want that to happen. But I guess everyone moves on eventually. My mom will inherit her dads house and they have had that one for like 70 years now from passing down generations. Its considered a historic home. Its pretty nice, very antique in as the walls are plaster. And it has a few very old buildings out back that used to be chicken coops.

that's great! is that the house you grew up in. it probably has a great deal of memories and history for you. i didn't move around alot as a kid. i basically stayed in the same house until i left to be on my own at a young age. my bf move around alot. his mother couldn't keep a stable place ever, so they live in shelters half the time.

hi gardengerty I lived in our farm house on our farm for my first 18 years then off to college, nurses training back home , off to college. left to go to work but came back home on weekends. then I moved to Phoenix Arizona well really Tempe arizona with my parents, they went back and forth, spending summers in South Dakota and winters in tempe but when I married a co worker they moved back to tempe Arizona to stay.Myh dad had arthritis and the cold winters got too much for my dad so they decided to come to Arizona and stay. they sold the farm and house and cut off all ties with their friends.I flunked out of Nurses training, mostly because I was not Catholic and refused to go to their services. I did get some more nurses training but was never a registered nurse but a practical nurse then a certified Nurse's aide.anyway I am now in a retirement center. c

Hi GardenGerty, I have lived here for years also. I am in my early 60's and I am waiting on my SS to start. Thank God my home is paid for and I don't see myself moving anytime soon. Or I would like to say at all. Unless something beyond my control forces me to move. I am totally satisfied. There are somethings that I would like to update or improve but that isn't a must or priorty. Have a blessed day.

We have lived in this house not quite 10 years. Before that I lived most of my life in one house in one town. When I was a baby/toddler I know we lived in a different town for a little while and even in a different state for a little while, but for all my life I could remember, up until I met my husband and moved, we lived in the same place. It seems like people do move around more these days. I was thinking, just recently, about how familes used to live in the same house ALL their lives. Generation after generation living in the same house, sometimes even at the same time.

Me? I have lived in this house for 50 years! Of course the physical house has undergone so many renovations.
