Carolyn....found this and thought it was what you were looking for. It's not vertical though...

Thanks Laurie but that's the same layout as the one they mailed us. The format that I like was posted up until this week (for 2010) and apparently they won't be posting 2011 in that format. I am seriously crushed...(and also have PMS which just makes it worse LOL)
I guess I need to start shopping for one in the office stores in the format I prefer. Poop :P
 
I'm grieving. Seriously like moping wanting to cry type of grieving...over a frickin' planner!!!! Sheesh.
I've been digging thru Staples.com looking for one that is closest to the Pampered Chef one they allowed us to download last year and not having much luck. Wah.
 
Okay so I am just going to keep coming back and whining and complaining til one of you reaches thru their monitor and smacks me - LOL
I found this one on Amazon.com that is most like the PC one I used in 2010. But I am sad that is has no PC logo on it (duh...what can I expect from Amazon?)
But it really is the closest to perfect for me. I wonder if I can get it 3-hole-drilled so I can put it in a hard binder and put the PC cover on it like I did last year.

PCs is fine for me. I know it's hard for them to make something that work work for ALL of us! For me, I'd like it to be a bit smaller so I can stick it in my purse. I'm going to get this one: http://www.busybodybook.com/inside.html and slap a PC sticker on the front. It's slightly smaller and I like the format.
 
I totally agree they'll never make one that's perfect for everyone...but I'd love if they would post downloadable versions of several different styles so those of us who are neurotic, picky and resist change (ahem...me) can print the one we prefer.
 
After I posted I realized it was the same one. Sorry....one day I may be helpful! lol

Wishing you much luck finding something that you love Carolyn...grrr to the PMS, because I'm sure that doesn't help! LOL

Why not send solution center an email suggesting online options? Though I hope they don't decide to scratch sending actual calendars and ask us all to print our own off CC like they did with the policy guidelines. :(

Because due to the PMS this week, I am too cranky to compose an email that will sound anything but nasty LOL
 
Carolyn, I have been trying to stay positive this week and I am trying to use this calendar...but the words you wrote were the same thoughts I had.

The on thing I REALLY hate...is that the week starts out with Monday. It screws me up and if I am showing someone it screws them up too. The week starts with Sunday PERIOD (oh...no PMS reference

My son gave me one for our Thanks-Christmas and he said I should give him the PC one but it got here after they left to go back to Milwaukee. Want to give him your extra so I can save on the postage? ;) JK!

My family is so big that my Grandmother's side does a combined event half-way between Thanksgiving & Christmas. We've nicknamed it "Thanksmas"! LOL

I thought of that but I didn't want to take Christ out of it. lol
 
Funny that you should mention that. My (now deceased) Grandfather was a Baptist Preacher. They were foster/adoptive parents and had 5 of their own, 5 that they adopted & 2 that they raised as foster children & claim. So 12 children. Probably 90% of the crowd is active in church & religion. But no one really associates the event with either holiday. It's their once a year family reunion. So no one seems to be offended by the nickname that somehow happened to the event. Everyone still celebrates Dec 25th with their immediate family, the in-laws, etc. This event is an extension of, not a replacement to the main date. ;)
 
So how about I just got mine YESTERDAY! I always knew that my mail was bad (I consistently get coupons that have expired, etc), but not this bad. Just thought you all would like a little laugh, b/c that's what I did :)
 
WOW... did it arrive via covered wagon? :p
 
I received mine the 1st week of January, but that's the military mail. I can't believe it took your calendar so long to arrive in VA!!! That's really sad!
