Calculation of Time under 61 OS 104

I just want to make sure my understanding is correct. Under the
Competitive Bidding Act, the notice by publication pursuant to 61 O.S.
104 is 21 days. The calculation starts the day after the first day of
publication and the 21st day would have to be the day before the bids
are opened.  So in my case, the first publication is on January 24,
2020, the bid opening could be the 15th of February or thereafter, and
if during the workday, would have to be on the 17th of February or
thereafter.  Am I correct? Thanks.
