I have noticed when I start the car there has been a slight pause and today when I first turned the key, nothing happened. The next time it started. Would that be the starter? Thanks I am an old women.

It could be a starter starting to go bad. However, there are other things that can cause it too. I hate to say it, but you need till it gets bad enough that it can be checked. At this point, it may not do it again for months. If it gets worse, then let me know and I can explain how to check the starter.
