Don,
It really depends on your ISP. I've had Comcast for about 9 years.
I've had the same IP Address the whole time.
While it is NOT a "static" address, it is still always the same.
Of course once you hit my internal router - all bets are off! Being a
computer type by profession, I have my own network and methods in place
to keep the "bad" guys and "things" out.

I thought that was normal for your IP address to change with a
broadband connection when you log completely out and then log back in.
Mine regularly changes when I shut the computer off, which I do
frequenly, particularly over the summer months when anything that is
plugged in to the a.c. power mains is subject to being blasted away
with a lightning jolt.
I check my IP address from time to time, and rarely is it the same as
it was last time.
