  Apparently I have 3 blogs but only 2 are showing…
  “shades of sweet” and “DIY Counseling” are fine…but when i google my old blog name “Ashley Charron, living life with less baggage” it still pulls up all my old content, which I do not want public any longer.
  I can’t figure out how to log into that old account…

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

  This is all going to boil down to how many username accounts you have and exactly which one registered which blog. There is only one means of account recovery so please read on.

  You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.

  Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

  If required please complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.

  Thanks thats super helpful info and makes sense! I followed the process and the 1 blog did not show up under my current log in name and password. It was not even under “hidden”. So now it leads me to believe i have a different log in & password for this one blog that i can’t get to…..how do i figure out what name was used to establish this blog?

  If you cannot guess which one it is then complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery by typing in as much information as you can, and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.
