Crontab Rescheduling

Hi,

I want to weekly schedule a script execution (using crontab) but only if the system load is low. My question is: If the script does not be executed ( because of high load ) how can I re-schedule the cronjob to run after some minutes? I want the re-scheduling to be executed until the final execution of my script.
