I set up a Thunderbird email account just to use one time for a project. It took everything out of my yahoo inbox, plus a lot of junk and put it in the Thunderbird inbox. Then I closed the window and now don't know how to get to my Thunderbird account, don't know what my user name is or password (or is it the same as my yahoo account?) I have requested two emails from Thunderbird, but is seems that they must be being grabbed and transferred into the Thunderbird email account (which I can't get to) and it doesn't show up in my yahoo inbox. Yikes! Can anyone help me?

There is no such thing as a Thunderbird account so there is no username or password. Thunderbird is email client software that helps you manage your real email account. There is no way to request emails from Thunderbird. No one there is going to send you anything. It is software running on YOUR computer. If your email account is with Yahoo then they are your provider and any lost username and or password should be addressed with them.
