when i did the initial ‘get started’, i did not choose the WEBSITE theme since I believed it would be easy to change. I now have a BLOG that I do not want. i went to change the theme and I still see the blog.. :( so i created another website with the right theme but want my other domain name. how can I correct the theme?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

re: switching themes
Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs.
Note that switching themes https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/#switch-themes can be easily done, provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the site you just go tohttp://aholisticprocess.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php
and type in the name of the theme or select one.
The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.

Every theme has a detailed theme description page and like this one at https://wordpress.com/theme/twentysixteen and that’s where set up instructions for it and the live demo site link is found.
A blog is a website. The difference between blog and website is simply structure and semantics.
A blog is a post based website designed for interactive communication. As the posts are frequently updated and appear on the front page of the site it’s very attractive to search engines.
What most people call a website is merely a page based site that functions as a one-way noticeboard. As the structure is page based and as pages are for static content that rarely changes, and as pages do not have RSS feeds, and as others do not backlink to pages, it is not as attractive to search engines as a post based blog structured site is.
Any WordPress blog can be restructured from being post based to being page based – no upgrade required. For greater clarity read >
