We've been setting record lows (for this time of year) in NNY too.
Tonight they are forecasting -25°. I hope they are wrong and it
doesn't go that low. It's probably age but my joints (knees, right
hip, wrists & fingers) get achy in sub-zero weather. It takes all the
fun out of winter.
Life is good but it's better when it doesn't hurt.
