AttributeError: 'datetime.date' object has no attribute 'date'

I have a script like this:

import datetime

# variable cal_start_of_week_date has type <type 'datetime.date'>
# variable period has type <type 'datetime.timedelta'>

cal_prev_monday  = (cal_start_of_week_date - period).date()

When the above statement is executed, I get the error:

AttributeError: 'datetime.date' object has no attribute 'date'

How to fix this?

.date() method exists only on datetime.datetime objects. You have object of datetime.date type.

Remove method call and be happy.

Stop trying to call the date() method of a date object. It's already a date.
