I've been using org-mode for four months now and I just love it. So I
think I'm post-newb but still very amateur.
Anyway, my to-do list has several repeating scheduled items like this
contrived example:
***** TODO [#B] Lunch date with Sarah at 12pm
SCHEDULED: <2009-12-08 Tue +1w>
Or, in English, I meet with Sarah for lunch once a week on Tuesdays.
Now, let's say that Sarah calls on Monday afternoon and says, "Can we do
lunch on Wednesday this week?" and I say "Sure thing."
Now I have a problem. I could shift the date to Wednesday like this:
***** TODO [#B] Lunch date with Sarah at 12pm
SCHEDULED: <2009-12-09 Wed +1w>
But that will mean that the following week it will *still* be scheduled
for Wednesdays (specifically Dec 16 instead of Dec 15). I miss my
regular lunch date with Sarah and catch ire for standing her up.
How do I handle situations like this?
It seems like I either need a time stamp "stack" or I need a temporary
flag that "self destructs" after a prescribed time.
