Default functions for if

Hello I need your help again. I am working on a spreadsheet for recording
condensate return which is metered and read daily (almost daily). I want my
sheet to subtract the reading from today from the reading for yesterday. then
i'll have a totals cell. the problem is that sometimes they for get to take
the reading for a few days and I have to enter 0 and the I get a minus when I
get the next reading.
the sheet is setup numbered From the 1st of the month to the 31st or what
ever the month is.
hope you understand

Thank You
Steve

Something like:
=IF(K13=0,"whatever you want if it is a zero",K14-K13)
