2012 Sock Monkey Wall Calendar (English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Dutch Edition)

I was truly looking forward to my 2012 Sock Monkey Calendar which I received a couple of days ago. I decided to note the important dates from my 2011 calendar when I noticed the date fell on the exact same day of the week as the 2011 calendar (so it appeared). Essentially (I thought) this is a 2011 calendar with the incorrect year on the front cover and new sock monkey photos.

I was so disappointed to see Monday as the first day of the week. Never have I seen a wall calendar with Monday as the first day.

I'm giving two stars instead of one, as the other reviewers did, because I like the pictures so well.

To try to get used to the order the days are in, I've marked the Sundays and Mondays in heavy marker for Jan. but so far the position of the weekdays is very, very confusing.

We've been very happy with the Sock Monkey calendars in years past but this year they switched up the layout so that the week begins on a Monday instead of a Sunday. Time to switch calendars. Goodbye Sock Monkey. We'll miss you.
