    I haven’t posted on my blog since 2013. I cannot get into it and wordpress will not send me a new password or any confirmation regarding this account.

    My user name that I used is crystallball7. I can still read it when I google it, but cannot log in using the email address attached to the account. Luckydogsoftbiscuits was a different account no longer used.

    What is the URL of the site you refer to?

    Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.

    You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and delete the site https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

    Clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username account, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

    If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
    follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

    If the log-in information is lost visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

    If you check each and every possible email address and account and are not successful gaining access to the blog(s) then please complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff, and provide proof ownership, so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.

    Bottom line: If you cannot verify ownership to Account Recovery Staff by use of this form https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and adding any other details you can provide at the end of the form you have reached a dead end. https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/
