Briefly: Separate out the configurable part (photo, schedule etc.), and generate the remaining calendar file automagically (using a programming language instead of bash this time around).

Solution:
The pdf calendar: newcal.pdf

The tex source with dates (generated from lc.py script weekly): newcal.tex

The tex source with graphics and schedule (edited manually): personalizations.tex

The python source that generated the tex code for newcal.tex: lc.py
