By mistake I altered the Blank Document - how to restore default?

I was new to Office 2007 and wanted to create a template; somehow it got
saved as the default "Blank Document" which automatically opens.

The "Blank Document" has part of my home address. Annoying to delete it to
create the new document.

Can't find a filepath to delete the "mistake"; have searched Help to no
avail. Do I have to uninstall and re-install Word/Office to eliminate this
pesky <Document1>?

No, just open Normal.dotm as if it's a document (from Office button >
Open), delete the text, save and close.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/BlankDocNotBlank.htm for more
info.
