I am trying to create a diary/organiser in TeX/Tikz, but having adjusted code found online I've struggling to combine elements into one document which has the following format:

Calendar overview of month with birthday's marked in, followed by week to view diary over two pages alternated with pages of square dotted note paper

Too ambitious?

So for example, from January the format would be:

• Calendar overview of January


• Two pages square dot note paper


• Week 1 diary over two pages (2-8 Jan)


• Two pages square dot note paper


• Week 2 diary over two pages (9-15 Jan)


• Two pages square dot note paper


• Week 3 diary over two pages (16-22 Jan)


• Two pages square dot note paper


• Week 4 diary over two pages (23 - 29 Jan)


• Two pages square dot note paper


• Calendar overview of February


• and so on for the year!

I am not a very elegant coder and a beginner with tex, so you'll probably find the additions I've made to scripts inefficient. Below are the three different scripts for the elements I'm seeking to combine into one document.

The first script - that makes the week-to-view pages - has a loop at the end which ensures all the dates are correct in the document. I can't tell how to keep this loop working, and also combine in the other elements.

week-to-view diary layout

The following code creates the diary layout I'm seeking - I adapted it from LaTeX calendar layout in Moleskine/Leuchtturm weekly format.

Overview calendar

The calendar overview layout I have working, adapated from http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/birthday-calendar/. However, how do I get it to the right place in the layout?

Note pages
And to make square dotted note paper, I have
draw [step=0.2cm,dotted, gray] (0,0) grid (7,7);

Any help appreciated - or direction to other posts which cover this issue. It was tricky to know how to search for it.
Thanks,
Lindsey
