  Hello,

  I am attempting to delete the blog I have called Writings of a Wandering Mind in its entirety. Whenever I try it tells me that I must go to the domain manager and from there I do not ever see an option to delete it. Is there a way to delete this blog/domain completely? Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.

  Sincerely,
  Jordan

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

  A site with a domain upgrade on it isn’t able to be deleted, as you’d lose the ability to log in and manage your domain.

  Are you keeping your domain lucidthoughtz.com or did you want to cancel it? Canceling a domain after 2 days of purchase means you completely give up ownership of the domain. There is no guarantee the domain will become available to re-register after cancellation.

  You are welcome to keep your domain with us and update the nameservers to point to another hosting provider by following this guide:

  After 60 days from the date of purchase or registrant contact information change, you may also transfer your domain to another registrar.

  If you would like to completely cancel your ownership of the domain name, please reply to confirm.

  If you’d like to keep your domain registered with us but shut down your WordPress.com site, you can simply set your site to “private” under Settings > Reading.

  Just let us know if you need further help.
