Hello and happy timezones, kind friends! I have greatly enjoyed your responses to my Get to Know You posts.
So, it’s time. Come sit on my porch for a spell. Tea, lemonade and refreshments will be served shortly.
Our questions today are called 2 truths and a lie! Don’t tell anyone which one was the lie, we’ll all try to guess!
Ready? Let’s go!
Round #55:
List 2 truths and 1 lie about yourself! Don’t forget to look at the comments and guess which one is the lie about our friends!
Here are mine:
- I was once a waitress to make ends meet,
- I worked in hospice as an RN for many years.
- I was an antique dealer and I still collect vintage and antique art glass.
And now, it’s your turn! If you don’t want to participate, no problem! I’m just glad you’re here. A hello would be fantastic, though! Of course, lurkers are always heartily welcome, too. xo
Thank you so much for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting! You are important!

Ooh. I know I’m late to this, but I’m commenting nonetheless!
I was once bitten by a venomous rattlesnake
I also stepped on a sea urchin
And I live in Kentucky.
Fun! You can comment on whatever you like, new post or old. 😀 😀
Let’s see…. is #1 the lie?
Nope. #3, actually. Good guess though!
I was thinking 3 first, but then I was hoping #1 wasn’t true. LOLOL
I just realized both the lies were in the same category, which is rather boring of me. Ah well.
You are not boring. LOL I really enjoyed your answers and playing with you. 🙂
Hi Kymber! Here’s mine: https://booomcha.com/2025/02/get-to-know-you-55-what-are-two-truths-and-a-lie-about-you/
Thank you! I can’t wait to see your answers!
Have a post for this! I’m airing it (hopefully tomorrow!) lol 😆 I loved this variation! Although, I remember from reading you for a while that you were a nurse (of course!) and that you also were into Antiques, so without looking at any answers that only leaves one left! Lol 😀
You know it! Most people thought #2 was the lie. LOL But, of course, you got it. 🩷🌺 I can’t wait to see your post! 🩷🌺🩷🌺
A little late but, here we are! 😀

Thank you again Kymber! 💕 🐈⬛ 🐈
I love it! Better late than never!
Here is mine Kymber! https://therapybits.com/2025/02/28/get-to-know-you-55/
Thank you! Your answers are great!
I know the second one is true.
For the lie, I would go with the first one because it’s a bit dramatic, and also, it has a comma at the end, which might make it untrue.
Here are mine:
1)I completed three years at WordPress this January.
2)I got hit on my left eye by a cricket ball on six different occasions, with one instance leaving my eyelid purple.
3)I hate maths and history.
Have a great day and a wonderful weekend ahead! 😊
You’re very observant! You are right! #1 is the lie. 🙂
Whoa, that cricket ball is out of control! lol 6 different times! I’m going to guess that #2 is the lie, only because it sounds so painful.
That’s true, haha.
The third statement is a lie, it’s basically the opposite.
ah! LOL 😀
Hmmm….. polite
Is #1 the lie?
Yes, that is true, I think.
That’s ok.
Number 3 is the lie.
I wasn’t a minor, I had turned 18 at the start of the school year.
Thank you for understanding. I’m glad #3 was the lie! LOL
I’m glad to hear that, too.
YES! You are right! Good thinking there.🌺
Oh my, these are difficult to decide.
Is #3 the lie?
Good 💯
Thank you!🌺
I met the actor Sam Elliott when he was filming “The Hi-lo Country” in a neighboring town.
I attended the Motley Crue Girls, Girls, Girls tour and was in the front row on the floor.
I met George Strait at a county fair when he was just getting started.
This is so hard! It could be any of them. lol
Let’s see… is #2 the lie?
#1 is the lie. My youngest son spent an afternoon with Sam Elliott during the few days of filming in Pritchett, Colorado in 1998. I was the principal at a different very small county school, and I organized with the film-makers to send bus loads of kids over to watch the filming. Woody Harrelson, who was also there, played basketball with the kids in the down times. I really really really wish I could have met Sam and Woody. 🥰
Wow that is cool about Woody and Sam! That’s so nice!
I auditioned as a featured extra for John Waters 1988 Hairspray film.
I performed a lip sync of the scissor sisters song filthy & gorgeous in drag as Francine Fabulass & the fabulettes.
I worked at Gilly Jeans in Philly in the 90’s my coworker was soon to be well known rapper Eve.
This is so hard! Let’s see…. is #2 the lie?
Nope #3. A friend of Mine has this memory which I find so cool to know someone before they hit it big. But nope, I raised about $300 for tgat performance. It was a benefit for my brothers LGBT church. The fabulettes were my brother and his husband.
That is so cool; your friend’s memory.
Wow! That’s a lot of money raised, excellent.
Yeah i know right 😁
🌺🌺
I was going to guess #2, but I read through the comments and see I am wrong.
2 seems to be a popular answer. But I was indeed a hospice nurse. 🙂
I think the le was that you worked in hospice as an Rn for many years.
I love beer.
I served in the Army for four and a half years.
My favorite music is hard rock.
No, that is true. 🙂
I think your lie is #1?
Got it!!! Great job, I HATE beer!!
Woot woot! I only said that one because I don’t like beer either. LOLOL
Haha!
🤣😂🤣😂
Fun questions! I think I know which one is your lie (I thought so before I read some of the commens) but I won’t spoil it.
Here are my answers:
1. I once sold Avon cosmetics door to door
2. I once played in a local charity golf tournament
3. In High School I tried out to be a cheerleader
All righty! 🙂
I think #3 is the lie?
Haha nope – # 3 is true. It’s # 2 that is the lie 🙂
Drats! Well, maybe next time, I’ll get it right. 😀
I was gonna guess 2 😁
Hi Kymber, hands down one of the best questions so far.
Once while walking on a trail, my wife and I passed a young energetic horse on a plain. The moment I turned my back to this horse, it bit me as hard as it could in my shoulder 😉 Ouch 😎
I’m an ex-competition swimmer. The most embarrassing thing happened when I didn’t make it into the final of the 1500 meters freestyle, because of a tactical error. I then won the B final in a faster time then the actual winner of the A final. Still buggers me to this day 😠
As a journalist we were on a visit through South Korea in the 90’s. We were supposed to visit a shipyard the next day and took a helicopter, flying across high mountains, where the engine of the copter lost hydraulic pressure with worrying oil leak. We had to make an emergency landing and almost crashed in the mountains. Close call 🫣
That’s it from me. Always a pleasure Kymber 🙏
Whoa!! I cannot tell which one is the lie!
Let’s see….. Is #3 the lie?
Nope, it’s number 2. Could have been true, as I’m an ex-competition swimmer, but that never happened 😉
That’s a great scenario you created! I love it!
Thank you 🙏 I guess I like storytelling 😉 Have a tremendous day 🌞
You, too, Chris!🌺
I was a waiter and bartender in college
I worked in organized commerce until I was over 70 years old
I played a doctor on TV.
Oh boy these are good! Which one? Which one?
Is #3 the lie?
ummm, guessing one and three are real…
Good guesses, but #3 is true. 🙂
Here’s mine
https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2025/02/27/get-to-know-you-55/
Thank you so much, Di! Be right there!
Oh, I was gonna try this one this week but since I blog with privacy as my number 1 priority, I can’t. I look forward to the next one instead then! Fun idea, though!
Oh I am sorry, Fedora! Yes, please play the next one. It will be regular questions next time.
Sounds good! I’ll see you then!
Can’t wait! 🩷🌺
I would guess maybe number 3 because that seems right but what do I know
Oh I am sorry, but #3 is true. 😀
For you Kymber I think #1 is the lie because it is the most normal sounding one. That’s how you trick people. Here are my three:
I was held at gunpoint and interrogated in the Soviet Union when I was a teenager.
I met Bill Clinton
I met George W. Bush
BTW if I press reply to any of the comments on your post nothing happens. I cannot reply to other people. I know there are problems with comments right now and the Happiness Engineers know about and are working on it (so they say), but I thought you should know.
And you are, of course, right. 🙂
Hmmm…. these are hard ones! Is the lie #3?
I’m sorry to hear that. It’s a wp issue I believe, but now I’m wondering if more people are having this issue. Thank you for letting me know and I will be looking into this further.
im an old paper boy
still get up at 4am
some habits are for life!

for a short while
Hmmmm…. Is the lie that you used to deliver mail?
no two years
Hmmm…. I see. Is the lie that you get up at 4am?
yes it s 3 am.
That’s so early! I hope you get rest another part of the day. 🙂

lol
https://musingsbydoddzillla.org/2025/02/27/tell-me-lies/
Thank you! Be right over!
I would have said number 3 was the lie, but I see I was wrong!
Here are mine:
1. I am allergic to my own hair.
2. My great-grandfather was wine butler to King George V.
3. I can speak three different languages fluently.
How am I to choose? LOL These are all so interesting!
I’m going to say #1 is the lie?
No, that’s true!
Gah! LOL Okay…. Is #3 the lie?
Yes, it is. Well done, Kymber. What a fun challenge.
I’m glad you are having fun! That’s the goal. 😀
Interesting challenge, Kymber! 🙂 I think #1 is your lie. As for me:
I used to be a corporate workaholic.
I’ve been married three times.
I’ve lived in 4 different countries, on two continents.
Yes! You are correct!
Wow! Yours are hard to choose from. I’m going to say #2 is the lie?
Yay me! 🙂 And you’re right as well. I’ve only been married once (in 1973), and we’re still together.
YAY!! I thought you were married a long time. 😀 ♥
Fun! For your lie, Kymber, I am going to guess #2. 🙂 Here are mine.
1. I followed an Indian Guru for 10 years
2. I have been backstage at a Willie Nelson concert.
3. I play the piano.
You guessed wrong. #2 is the truth! 😀 ♥
Yours are good! Let’s see…… I think #2 is the lie.
No. #2 is true. Actually twice. 🙂
Wow! That’s something so cool!
Is #1 the lie then?
Nope. And that brings it to #3. 🙂
Whoa! That is so cool, Jan! I liked getting to know you more. ♥♥
I visited the NASA Johnston space centre in Huston Texas
I attended a Whitney Huston concert and she pulled me on stage.
I sang Mustang Sally on stage at a summer concert in Smith’s Falls in 2002.
Hmmm these are good ones.
I think #2 is the lie?
You are correct Kymber! I did attend the concert but she never pulled me on stage 😊 you’re very sharp! I will caution a guess on your list for #2 being the lie. 😊
Woot! Although that would have been amazing.
I’m sorry but #2 is the truth. ♥
We saw Whitney Huston in concert and sadly she was a lot to be desired that night. The support band’s drummer got the standing ovation and she was not happy.
Oooooh, I bet she was definitely unhappy about that! :O
Very!
🩷🌺
I was lucky to see her perform at the beginning of her career she looked and sounded like an angel then. It was one of her best all time performances. Toronto’s CNE in 1986
That’s wonderful that you saw her at her best. Sounds lovely and exciting, too. 🩷🌺
There is a lot of variety in your background!
Yes, that is so true, Jacqui! I want to do all the things! LOL 😀
Ooh. This is tough. I’ve always had a tough time with this challenge, because it’s hard to come up with a believable lie. At least for me . . . because I am a terrible liar. As for yours . . . let’s see . . . is number 2 the lie? But wait. You can’t answer that, yet, can you, because it would give it away for others.
Here are mine:
1. I was a worship leader/music minister for many years
2. I played Little League and Pony League baseball and got to pitch in one game
3. I prefer Star Wars to Star Trek
Hi, Jeff!
Your guess for me is: wrong! (I decided I’ll just answer.)
I gasped when I read #3, so I’m going to say that is the lie. 😀
You are correct! 😁 Trekkie to the death!
Same here which is why I gasped when I read that! LOLOL
🤣🤣
🤣😂
