I still have some hope for the bok choy and fun jen. The lettuce is too tiny despite the fact that it is bigger now than when the 1st frosts hit.
The fun jen suffered quite a bit when the temperatures dropped into the low 20's and teens almost a month ago. There's some scarring of the leaves.
Bok choy looks fine but there aren't enuf plants for more than a single serving at the size they are now. All of these things were planted on the bed that grew potatoes and they went in later than I've ever planted. I got one nice harvest of little bok choy.
Every morning there's frost but there have been some very nice afternoons, up to 50F, today. And, even when it hasn't warmed that much and there's been zero sunshine, the weather has been mild without wind.
We have been promised that rain is coming tomorrow and perhaps in a few more days, snow. That will likely be the end of the story.
I've run a lawn mower over the large veggie garden and used a corn knife on the cornstalks. The plants in the annual cutting garden have been pulled, a couple beds dug out to about 10 inches, and the plants buried. The little veggie garden has been tilled with the rototiller. I've got a bed with some late-planted onions for next year. All that's left for 'o9, is that 1 bed with a few greens . . .

fully understand what Wifezilla is telling us. Up and down, down and up, blazing sunshine, crushing hail, heat, wind, snow . . .
