Class Increment and Decrement operators not working?

First let me start by saying that my code was too long for this post so down inbetween where it says >>START and <<END is where I put my increment and decrement operator functions. I will post them in the first comment. They were VERY long. My problem is that the increment and decrement post and prefix operators seem to not be working correctly. The increment will increase the day by 1 but not cycle to the next month if the day goes out of bounds and the decrement seems to do nothing. Maybe plug em in and see what you get so you understand what I'm saying?
