My WP-hosted site no longer accessible after redirecting URL

  A couple of years ago, I purchased the URL opineseason.com through GoDaddy and had it redirected to a WordPress-hosted site (opineseason.wordpress.com). That worked perfectly until I redirected that URL, through GoDaddy, to a self-hosted site. Now my WordPress-hosted site is completely inaccessible, either online or through my WordPress admin dashboard.

  Ideally, I want both sites active and independent from one another, and I don’t understand why simply redirecting a URL would eliminate my WP-hosted content and admin dashboard.

  Is there any way to retrieve and activate my WP-hosted site/content?

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

  What is the URL of your WordPress.com site? (starting with http://…)

  If the URL is https://mattpeiken.wordpress.com/ that blog is alive &well.

  And the admin URL is
  https://mattpeiken.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  No, that site isn’t the problem. Here’s the site that ISN’T alive and well:
  opineseason.wordpress.com

  Here’s the site that ISN’T alive and well:
  opineseason.wordpress.com

  That site is associated with the custom domain http://opineseason.com/

  You need set the primary domain from
