You are on the right track.  You need to find out what day of the week today
is first:

<CFSET Today = DayOfWeek(NOW())>

Find out how many days until Saturday:

<CFSET DaysUntilSat = 7-Today>

Add that number of days to today to get Saturday's Date:

<CFSET Saturday = DAteAdd("y",DaysUntilSat,Now())>

Add one more day to that to get Sunday's date:
<CFSET Sunday = DAteAdd("y",1,Saturday)>


To tighten that up, combine some functions to get:
<CFSET Saturday = DAteAdd("y",(7-(DayOfWeek(Now()))),Now())>
<CFSET Sunday = DAteAdd("y",1,Saturday)>

Welp, I looked at those, and all I could see was something complex like "get
DayofWeek, if DayofWeek = Wed, Saturday equal DayOfWeek+3." You see my brain
stem? And that just doesn't cover a Saturday being the 31st, and then Sunday
being a 1st.

I really need an example of code here. I learn best that way.
