Default lining up numbers on calendar?

As I was setting this up, I thought it sounds kind of picky (LOL)
There are probably other templates that do more what I want, I just got to using this one. (I usually use the "understated" one and adapt it to what I want or think will work good)
On this one (Varsity- Pub 2007) it seems like the numbers of the days are too far to the left under the names of the days up top.
It looks okay in the template (the numbers are in boxes) but the lines don't show/print, otherwise.
If you look at Sunday or Sat you can see what number is under what day, because of the margins, but the others seem to be in the middle between two days.

http://www.kingcon.com/starchild/varsity.html

Since the calendar is basically a table, is there a way of selecting it (just the days 1-30 or so) and moving it 2 spaces over to be more under the days up top?
I've tried selecting and moving but it mainly does it just with what I have selectred (like one day) Same with lines I've tried to get (light fine) lines to show where the guidelines are.
I have gone over the numbers and moved each one to the right a bit, but this is time consuming and a bother.
I imagine it's the style (to have the numbers a bit to the left under the days) but it doesn't seem clear to me. If I look at a calendar I like to know which day is which date and not have to look at the margin and figure it out.
I have been making these calendars to set on the desktop (got the idea it would be nice to have the current month's calendar right there)

Select the entire table, right-click, format table, cell properties tab. Change
the right text margin to .14. On the publication page, change the align the text
to right. You may want to leave the day row as is.

You needn't change the margin, just change the text to right. It depends on how
much space looks good to you.

And, it goes to show the answer can be something right in front of you.
I never thought about the "align right" option (with or without the
margins)

Just for the record (for anyone searching for this someday)
I ran the mouse over the days (not the names of them) and clicked "align
center" up in the top bar, and they lined up perfectly.
Didn't have to do anything to the margin, but that's something to remember
for other setups.
Sometimes it's right there, plain and simple.
