I do it for the last Friday of the month.  I do it by using the TZ variable
and number of hours for a week (168,  24 hours by 7 days).  My script is
made to run on Friday only (every Friday).  I get the current month(cm) and
I get next weeks Friday's month with the following for central time:

cm=`data +"%m"`
nm=`TZ=CST6CDT-168 date +"%m"`

If cm equals nm then this is not the last Friday of month and quit.
If cm not equal to nm then this is the last Friday of the month.

The same can be done with Sundays.

How do you achieve to create a schedule for every last sunday of the month?
(there could be 4 or 5 sundays??)
