Screwed up in getting this out on Sunday as I should have. I blame exhaustion.

Anyway, incomplete items are no longer going to be listed in the “next week” section of Tasks and Accomplishments. Since they’re incomplete, they should be assumed to be there in the first place. I’m also considering removing weekly chores too, since not doing those is the exceptional state. They’re still in this report, but next week they probably won’t be.
