It wasn't so bad when I was younger and when the temp kinda stayed in a small range. So this Winter it only been down to -18 C. Now that I am 60+ the cold, wet, and wind together makes it hard to do anything. Fingers hurts like heck now a days. But I keep the house around 16C as to not get used a warmer temp. Now my mother keep the house around 25 C during the Winter. Now we do have Summer heatwaves with temps over 37 C. Thank goodness that there are shade trees.
