Default Another battery charing question

I posted a question earlier in week about whether a battery would drain if the rx switch was left on. Well, it does. So, to see if that was the problem, I charged the battery and all seems well now.

Here's my new and related question:

I charged my battery on Monday. I am familiar with the fact that NiCad batterys will discharge themselves over time, I just do not know how quickly this occurs. However, I am planning on flying on Sunday. Is the charge still sufficient for a day of flying, after the battery has sat all week?

I am afraid if I hook it up to a charger, again, after it was just charged (and not flown), it will speed up the memory problem these things have.

Thanks.
