Feeling lost on doodle kisses

[Patty Van Wagoner]

Hi all.   I joined doodle kisses a few months ago -- I wasn't really sure what I was doing but managed to play around in my Page.  I thought I was a very computer savvy person -- but I feel completely lost on here.  Not sure how to maneuver around.  
I'm trying to find fellow doodle owners in my area as I'd be curious to find any doodle get togethers or romps. I live in Virginia Beach but will moving to Chesapeake next month.   WHere do I go to find any of this information?
My next question is:  Do I have to join groups according to subject manner?

Just need a little guidance as I've heard so so so many great things about doodle kisses.  I belong to a ton of groups on facebook and usually once a day doodle kisses is mentioned by someone.  

THanks for any help or advice in advance.

Welcome to DoodleKisses.  This really is a great website and you can get started easily.  My Page probably doesn't have too much in it yet, so take a look around Main page.  If you want to respond to something, you just type your response in the box and then hit Add Reply at the bottom.  You can find groups that speak to your interests or locale and then you will get notices about posts by other people in the group.  I will ask for you to be a friend and when you accept, you will have another friend.  There is an inbox right under your name and when you click on it you can get private messages.  You will get accustomed to browsing around pretty quickly.  Have fun.  Go to my page and click on photos and you can meet me and my dogs.
