I changed my nameservers from Cloudflare to homestead's and my website is not working. It does not show a CNAME

I changed my nameservers from Cloudflare to homestead's now my website is not working. It doesn't show a CNAME record if that makes aa difference. I changed it yesterday so I'm hoping this is just a waiting game but I don't want to wait three days and have it still not work. I'm also not sure my mx records are correct.

Did you recently add Cloudflare? Most likely, you tried to add Cloudflare to secure your website and you've failed to set up the DNS record as directed. Review the platform options below and review your installation to ensure it's correct.

You can SSL your Sitebuilder Plus website by following this article:

I think you misunderstood, I was using Cloudflare for years with the site builder plus website but when I changed to website builder I changed my nameservers back to ns3 and ns4.homestead.com and now nothing seems to work. I don't want to use Cloudflare unless I have to

@marty8318​ Gotcha. Do you want a secure website experience for your visitors? I'm not a technician, I am part of the choir. If you use the instructions for making your websitebuilder website secure with Cloudflare, using the instructions supplied, you'll probably get your website back online. If you don't want that, you should call support.

I reiterate:
