  My blog is not pulling up. Could it possibly be down or is it something I did.

  Are you referring to crewandlu.com?

  If so, the domain’s name servers are not pointed to us.

  Per the guide at http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/ they need to be:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  It should be pointed towards WordPress. Everything was working fine this morning. I made a post and published it and now it’s not pulling up my sight all. Even if I type in crewandLu.wordpress.com

  Right, I agree that it should be, but it’s not. :)

  You’ll need to contact your domain registrar about this if you’re having trouble changing your name servers.

  Ok contacted godaddy and renamed the name servers to ns1.wordpress, ns2.wordpress, etc. and still nothing. I tried making another post helping it will somehow launch my site and nothing. Is it on WordPress end?

  If you have time please check out crewandLu.com

  http://crewandlu.com/ appears to be working properly now. Here’s what I see: http://d.pr/i/dobz/2MQRZ1Kb

  When a domain is registered or altered, there is a process called propagation, where information about the domain name is passed to internet service providers all over the world. This process can take up to 72 hours (though usually much less). During that time, you may also receive a warning message in your browser about “redirect errors”. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your internet service provider updates their records. Please rest assured that everything is proceeding normally with your domain.

  You can continue to update your site while your custom domain propagates, by going directly to your Dashboard, here:
  https://crewandlu.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  If you still have trouble viewing the site after 72 hours has passed, please try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies:

  If that doesn’t work, try clearing your local DNS cache:

  Please let me know if you have any more questions.
