Use the datetime library

from datetime import datetime

Then just include an if statement in you're while loop with something like:

if datetime.today().strftime('%A') not in ['Friday', 'Saturday']:
    # Query site

or

if datetime.today().weekday() < 4 or datetime.today().weekday() > 5:
    #Query site

You can try something like this:

import datetime  
from datetime import date 
import calendar 

today = date.today()
TODAY =  today.strftime("%d %m %Y")

def findDay(date): 
   day, month, year = (int(i) for i in date.split(' '))     
   day = datetime.date(year, month, day) 
   return day.strftime("%A") 


print(findDay(TODAY))

then you can run a if statement!
