Thank you for trying to help me. When I looked at the Reveal Formatting, everything was set as I expected. The only thing I am noticing is it is picking up my book formatting page size. But I'm okay with that.

Checked the boxes as you suggested for distinguish style source and showing all formatting marks. I expanded the one area that I could.

Tried Home - then under Select used drop down to Select Objects. No surprises.

Started typing in doc - again. Finished first line. Wanted to go to first paragraph to start typing - it's back to dropping me to like where a footer should be.

Very frustrating!

There's something this is trying to throw this either every four lines - OR - to the bottom. And it is set for single line spacing ant 11 pt Arial still.
