There is no automated way to do that. You will have to convert your spread sheet to PDF and then add the form fields and calculation scripts manually.

So I got help up unto this point. I can fill in some places but I cannot fill in the days of the week with numbers. How do I make the days of the week fillable?

It looks like you've let Acrobat detect form fields. This does not always work correctly - sometimes it recognizes fields where there are none, and sometimes it does not recognize field where it should. You will have to add the missing fields manually with the form editor.
