Second week of 2 months ago

let date = NVDate()
    .previousMonths(diff: 2)
    .firstDayOfMonth()
    .nextWeek()
date.dateFormat(setFormat: "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss")

print(todayIsFriday)
// ==> false

Dot syntax

let someday = NVDate()
    .previousDay()
    .previousWeek()
    .nextDay()
    .asString()

print(someday)
