  Thank you – but it’s still not letting me in – could I be using the wrong password or username?
  I’ve gone through that link for years…

  One cannot access any blog and work on it, unless one is logging in under the correct username ie. the same username that registered the blog and owns the blog.

  I do own the blog, and have had it for some years.

  So, how might I get access to confirm my username (it’s been doing this automatically for years, and now wants confirmation…so I am a bit in the dark here and do need to gain access to my blog).

  thanks!

  I’m sorry. I made the classic error of not locating the blog first. this is no a free hosted WordPress.com blog http://www.whatsarahsees.com/
  Go to the footer of the blog , locate and click this link “Proudly powered by WordPress“

  You are posting to the wrong support forum. This is the correct forum for your software http://wordpress.ORG/support/ If you have not registered a WordPress.org username account yet you can do so on the top right hand corner of the page I just linked to so you can post to those support forums.

  No, that is really nice of you.

  I went back to that area and it’s still going on.

  Could be my Username? Ugh….It’s always been automated, I have no idea where to look for the original….
