After saving it to the plain text file, delete the CSS from the CSS edit window and click the save button.

Now I want to go back to my theme's default appearance. How do I do that?

I found in the theme options the defualt button for colors. I chose that and clicked "Save and Publish" but nothing changed.

I see a lot of users with the possibility to a 'theme editor' in their appearence menue, but I dont have that on my account?

WordPress.com does not offer the option to edit theme code directly, so the theme editor you're thinking of is not available on WordPress.com and you must be looking at posts or tutorials about WordPress.org blogs. See http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ to learn about the differences.

At WordPress.com, the Custom Design upgrade gives you the option to add or replace CSS. You can do a ton with CSS only, but if you're looking to change the structure of a blog, then you'll want to switch to a WordPress.org setup which gives you complete control over the code including the theme editor option you were looking for. There are pros and cons to each setup, check out that link above to learn more, and reply back here if you still have questions after that.

For more information about the Custom Design upgrade on the WordPress.com side, see these links:
https://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/custom-design/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/

Regarding moving the footer widgets in the Balloons theme from the side to the right on WordPress.com, some people have figured out how to do it with CSS only. Her is an example:
http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/moving-widgets-on-balloon-theme?replies=2#post-1091818

To test that, add the code to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS page and click the Preview button.

I could almost swear that I could edit themes on wordpress.com a few months back but I can't see anyway to do that now

We cannot edit templates or themes on free hosted WordPress.com blogs and have never been able to do so. As this is a multiuser blogging platform all blogs using the same theme are using the same template. Only Staff can access those files and edit as every edit they makes affects all blogs using the same theme.

You will also be responsible for all installations, all upgrades, all backups and all troubleshooting. If something goes wrong, you will have to figure it out and fix it.

Any change by one person would change it for everyone using that theme.

If you have CSS editing experience, you can get the Custom Design upgrade, which will allow you to stylize the themes here, but it does not allow you to change the functionality. CSS is also themes specific so you cannot use the CSS from one theme with another theme. Before buying the upgrade, you can go to appearance > Custom Design and wordpress has provided a preview function where you can try out changes before you buy the upgrade.
