Why does my location/address bar disappear unless I move my mouse cursor over it? Then it reappears. It wasn't doing this before today.

Whenever I sign onto Firefox, my location bar (the bar where you type in the web address) disappears. It reappears whenever I move my mouse's cursor over the area it is supposed to be located, but keeps disappearing when I move it away. This is really annoying! It just started doing this 2 hours ago! Nothing has changed on my computer either...no updates or anything. So I'm assuming this is a Firefox issue.
