  I had a website: http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.wordpress.com. Then I switched to a Premium, then switched to a wordpress.org site. The new site was thegoodlifewithkids.com. Now, when I go to http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.wordpress.com, it is redirected to http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.com (which is no longer a real website). How can I switch everything back to http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.wordpress.com?
  Your help is greatly appreciated!

  Hi there,

  You actually have a couple of options here. Your domain (http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.com) is active so if you’d like to continue using it we can reset your name servers to point your domain to your http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.wordpress.com site. This is the option I recommend.

  If you’d rather not use your domain name, we can also have both domains point to http://www.thegoodlifewithkids.wordpress.com.

  Let me know which domain you would like to use as your “main” address and I’ll help you set everything up correctly.

  I was able to reset this for you. It can take a little while (up to 72 hours) for the domain to start pointing to your WordPress.com site, so you might not notice the change right away, but by Monday evening you should be all set.

  Let me know if you have any additional questions, or run into any more problems.
