The rates at which the earth rotates, the moon revolves around the earth, and the earth revolves around the sun don't sync up exactly over the course of a day or month. That complex motion means at some points in the month the moon is in the earth's shadow, and/or may not be on the side of the earth to be visible from a particular location.

The only day on which you generally do not see the Moon is on the day of the "new" moon, when the Moon is quite near the Sun in the sky. On any other day of the 29-day cycle, you will - weather permitting! - be able to see the Moon, either in the morning or in the evening.
