I've been numbering my monthly log pages wrong for a year and a half

Honestly I was flipping through my old bullet journal last night and noticed my index was a mess. Pages were labeled 1, 2, 3 but the monthly logs were all out of order because I was counting each spread as one page instead of the front and back. A friend at a coffee shop in Austin pointed out my layflat notebook has page numbers on both sides and I felt pretty dumb. Has anyone else messed up a basic numbering system like that?

Used to think numbering a journal was simple as counting pages, but you're right - it's easy to miss the front and back thing. I always assumed a spread was one page until I messed up my own planner last year. Made me pay more attention after that.

@nathanb71 at least you caught it early, I numbered my first journal backwards like an idiot.
