How the weekends are counted
A weekend counts as remaining when its Saturday has not yet passed. Saturday anchors the count because a weekend already under way cannot be planned around, and using one weekday stops a weekend straddling the end of a span being counted twice. Each page also gives the plain tally of Saturdays and Sundays, which is a different number.
What is left of 2026
The same arithmetic applies to the year itself. 98 days remain in 2026, which is 14 whole weeks and 0 days, with 14 weekends and 70 working days still to come.
