Hi there,
Here’s a link to the step by step guide: Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress
https://move.wordpress.com/ -
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
This is wordpress.COM support. We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
(1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
(2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.
(3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.Support for your new site is found at http://wordpress.ORG/support/ The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/
Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack
However, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service -

BTW, I just remembered something…
I spoke with a support tech at Bluehost and he said I needed a domain transfer code from WordPress. He said it would be difficult for me to transfer myself that a tech could do it for $150… 😖 Granted, I’m not tech savvy but everywhere I read it’s not difficult, but what do I know. So do I need a code and is it difficult to transfer -

You do not own a custom domain domain hosted here so that does not apply.
WordPress.COM is the top level domain here and all sites like this one https://keepinitruralinthemidwest.wordpress.com are on .wordpress.com sub domains.
What you need to transfer is your content only:
