Moving Myrtle
Vital Stats:
Age: 75
Retired
Lives with her husband in their home of 30 years, but are moving to a retirement community
Income level: fixed
Disposable income is low
Transport: city transit and her children
Goals/needs:
Needs to downsize her and her husband’s possessions drastically to accommodate their new living situation
Since their cost of living will be increasing, Myrtle wants to be able to find needed items, like clothing, for discounts. Her husband was a tailor so clothing can be mended.
Motivations:
Myrtle will be moving in two months time, and she feels overwhelmed with what to do with all her possessions that will not be able to fit into her new unit/storage. She wants to find an easy way to rehome/recycle anything they can’t take
Since she and her husband live on their pensions, Myrtle wants to save money in both downsizing and in future upkeep.
Frustrations:
Other than the thrift store, she doesn’t know where she can reliably get items that she needs, and her ability to go far from her home is limited by transit or her children’s availability.
A lack of information about what she can do with everything they will no longer be needing. Her husband wants to rent a big garbage bin and just throw everything away because it’s “easier.”
Activities:
Myrtle loves to garden, and often uses household waste and scraps to create trellises and other gardening tools/structures.
She enjoys listening to audiobooks on her phone.
Tech Experience:
Quite limited
Myrtle has a smartphone and tablet, but she is not comfortable using any apps that her children have not taught her. She eventually gets the hang of apps she uses frequently.

Description
###Description
Moving Myrtle is a retired woman who has lived in Saskatoon her whole life. She and her husband, Larry, have been in the same home for over 30 years. The house has become too much to manage, so they recently decided to move into an independent retirement community.
