[ubuntu] can't access Ubuntu files from win 7 guest

I have been studying this for hours and can't get so I can see my ubuntu files from the win 7 guest I have my home folder shared in VB and tried the mount I read to do but get an error. I need simple directions. I am trying to share my home folder and do have it marked shared in Ubuntu and added in the VB share option. As you can see below I tried 2 different commands but neither works. I do have the guest additions installed and can mount my flash drive OK once I learned I had to unmount it from Ubuntu first.

Code:

cmcanulty@darcytech:~$ sudo mount -t vboxsf -o uid=$UID,gid=$GID share ~/host
[sudo] password for cmcanulty:
mount: mount point /home/cmcanulty/host does not exist
cmcanulty@darcytech:~$ sudo mount -t vboxsf -o uid=$UID,gid=$GID share ~/host/home/cmcanulty
mount: mount point /home/cmcanulty/host/home/cmcanulty does not exist
cmcanulty@darcytech:~$
