Hijacked Account?

    I recently set up a new site http://www.familyfolkexplosion.com and had no issues logging into initially but three days ago it stopped recognizing my username and / or password. When I tried to send a password reset to the email I used to set it up it wasn’t recognized. I received a confirmation email upon setup at an alternate email but when I request a password reset there nothing shows up. Non of the content on my site has been altered but I’m starting to think I’ve been hijacked. Does this make any sense?
    Blog url: http://keeot.wordpress.com/

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I’m afraid http://www.familyfolkexplosion.com/ is not a WordPress.COM blog, and you’ll need to look at WordPress.ORG for solutions. We can’t help.
