yer this is a little hard to explain
i am trying to run a specific function over the period of 4-6 days ago.

so, if today is the 16th, i want to run a test from 10-12th.
this test is a small part of a whole system. i want to check for something between the 10th 
and the 12th, and then run a different function from 13th-16th

hope that makes sense
thanks again for the help!
