Your thoughts on ND filters

The only thing I have is a UV Filter..lol..as I lower my head in shame.

I really want to get some but don't know where to start...

Go for the mid-nd grad. You can tone the sky down a bit but leave the foreground lighter.

I would recommend investing a little more in your filters than one. Ideally, as a start, look to a 1 stop and a 2 stop graduated neutral-density and the same in straight neutral density. This will give you a lot more flexibility and creativity.
