Hi Nicole,
The domain name servers that your domain is currently using (NS01.DOMAINCONTROL.com and NS02.DOMAINCONTROL.com) belong to GoDaddy. Are you trying to use your domain with a website hosted by GoDaddy?
If so, you’ll need to start by switching back to the WordPress.com name servers. You can do that under Store > My Domains in your dashboard, by clicking the Edit Domain button next to your domain. On the Name Servers tab there, you can select “Use WordPress.com name servers” to switch back.
To point your domain to your GoDaddy site, you can then follow the steps in this guide: Mapping a Domain Registered with WordPress.com to a WordPress Site Hosted on GoDaddy
Please let me know if you have any questions about that process.

Nicole,
As Rachel said, pointing your WordPress.com domain to a GoDaddy site can be a bit tricky. :) The nameservers for the domain actually need to be pointed to us (unlike most other instances where you want to point a domain to another host).
Anyway, I have done that for you, so your GoDaddy site should start displaying at the domain bsugarmama.com within 24 hours or so, probably faster.
Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with! :) Thanks!
