You can just echo the date and append it to a file, if the file does not exist, then it is created.

Code:
-bash-3.2$ echo `date` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+1 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+2 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+3 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+4 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+5 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+6 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ echo `date -d '+7 days'` >> dates.txt
-bash-3.2$ cat dates.txt

       The following commands are recognized:

	   list list scripts on server.

	   put <filename> upload script to server.

	   get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout

	   delete <name> delete script.

	   activate <name> activate script.

	   deactivate deactivate all scripts.

OPTIONS

       -u user, --user=user
	   The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials.

       -a authname, --authname=authname
	   The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user).

       -r realm, --realm=realm
