Was it Mae West who first said “Old age isn’t for sissies” or  is it Bette Davis who may have first said 'Getting old ain't for sissies.’  Both were fiesty women who had many one-liners.


It is a line that pops into your head when you are struggling. The blogger who writes of “Weaver of Grass” is a woman I have been following for about ten years who has used these lines in her blog and it certainly applies to her life...

She, I believe her name is Pat Thistlethwaite, is ninety years old and has been blogging since 2008. She talks about old age creeping up on her. Pat has acquired several hundred followers and gets many responses to her blogs. 


She is my inspiration for ‘Aging in Ambleside’.
