Make exceptions for conflicts with recurring appointments
Recurring appointments often conflict with exceptional events like Thanksgiving, or a scheduled personal appointment. It would be nice for the calendar to show upcoming conflicts with the repeat appointment and have an option to choose "Skip this appointment date," but schedule the other recurring appointments for which there are no conflicts.

The calendar should just skip unavailable dates when booking recurring appointments. For instance if I'm going to out on a random Friday and have it blocked on my schedule, months from now, the system will not let me set a recurring Friday appt today because of that one day that I will be unavailable. It would save time if the system can just skip that day and set the appt for all of the other available Fridays.
