I know this problem has been discussed before, but I can't find a thread with an adequate solution or workaround.
I have many tasks that should be done on a specific day of the month, meaning on the third Friday, or on the last Monday of the month. A repeat every 4 weeks won't do, nor will every 30 days.
I understand that the Omni people have chosen to leave such fancy scheduling to iCal, but in accordance with what I read in David Allen's GTD book, I only put real "hardlandscape" items on the calendar. These tasks are to be done on the specified day, but nothing will happen if I postpone the action or skip it altogether for that iteration.
The only way I found to do this is to set the task to not repeat and not check it off when I do it but reschedule it manually. Not very elegant!
Please point me to a better solution, if one has been suggested.
Thanks,
EllenH
