  Hi there,

  You don’t own a domain on WordPress.com. You did own livinglifeinblush.com, but you cancelled it again. As you cancelled it on the same day you bought it, it should be available again in a few days. Or I can restore the domain to your WordPress.com account if you don’t want to wait.

  Thank you for your response. If I have you restore it for me, am I able to transfer it?

  You can transfer it after you’ve owned it for 60 days. This holding period is an anti-fraud measure, so we cannot bypass it. But during this period you can map it to a different provider to use it with a site somewhere else.

  Note that if I restore it you will need to pay for the domain again, as your original payment was refunded. The cost of the domain with private registration is $26. If you confirm, I’ll send you a link for the payment, and reactivate the domain as soon as we receive that. If the domain is released by the time you pay you’ll be refunded in full.
