Page Layout Issue!

[SamanthaH1]

I am new to InDesign and I have no idea what I did or how to fix it. I am creating a new document that is 7"x9" and I go through and set up my margins and bleeds but when I creat the document I am getting this! When I go in and try to set up grids and all that it doees the entire white space instead of just the 7"x9" space. I don't know what I did because I have never had this issue on my other projects and I don't know how to fix it

Please explain what you are seeing here that is wrong. The white area is 7" x 9" with half-inch margins and quarter-inch bleeds. Can you add a screen shot of what the grid is doing?

Ok I am an idiot lol. My mind was not comprehending what I was looking at and I did my margins all wrong. Yay for being brand new here. Thank you so much for your help
