Snugg Keyboard & Case for iPad Mini

20 August 2013

Snugg Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard and Case*, £34.99: The Snugg UK (HERE) | The Snugg US (HERE)

I know Le Beauty Girl is a beauty & fashion blog, but technology is honestly my Achilles’ heel! I get more excited about Apple launches, than Chanel launches – and that says something, doesn’t it? The hubby and I recently got an iPad Mini and it’s amazing; we had the original iPad, which was great, but a bit bulky and heavy to carry around, so it’s nice to have the iPad mini to take with me on my train journeys and I can blog on the go! One thing that really helps typing on the iPad, is a wireless keyboard, which is exactly what I have to share with you guys today.

This is the Snugg Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard and Case, which is compatible with the iPad mini. It’s really lightweight and it adds hardly any bulk to the iPad when the case is attached to it. The keyboard/case has an aluminium finish with white keys, which actually reminds me of the Apple wireless keyboard; the only difference is, the keys on the Apple one are a bit softer when pressed.

The Snugg Keyboard & Case was designed with a stand built in, which fits the iPad mini perfectly and makes it easier to type without having to balance the iPad somewhere else. The keyboard is battery operated and it also comes with a USB charging cable; it charges in 2-3 hours, but according to the User Guide, you can use it for over 80 hours uninterrupted or 90 days on standby without charging it.

Using it was really easy! Turn it on, press the connect button and turn your Bluetooth on your iPad; the iPad will recognise the keyboard and will ask you to type a code into the keyboard. Hit enter and you’re ready to use it. Simples! I found it really easy to use the keyboard and it made writing long emails and blog posts on the go a much more pleasurable task. Because this is essentially a wireless bluetooth keyboard, it can be used with other Apple devices as well, which is quite handy! But chose wisely, as you can only pair it with a maximum of 3 devices.

The keyboard is a case in itself, so it saves space when travelling with your iPad mini and the keyboard, and it keeps both of them protected. However, once the iPad was secure into the keyboard/case, I did find it a bit difficult to remove it without damaging the case or scratching the iPad; I wouldn’t recommend fully attaching the case to the iPad, unless you’re travelling and you won’t be using the iPad for a while. Also, the case only protects the front of the iPad, so the back is susceptible to scratches and dents.

Overall, I’m really happy with this little gadget! It’s a life-saver when writing long emails on the go, as the on-screen keyboard can get a bit annoying sometimes. It’s well built and easy to use, very lightweight and cute as well! I think this would make a great present for anyone that has an iPad, especially for the ones that haven’t quite got used to the touch screen technology – mum, I’m talking to you! By the way, it’s her birthday tomorrow, so Happy Birthday, mum! :)

Not the pregnancy announcement I had in mind, but… we’re expecting baby number 3! ❤️🙏🏻 I’m 11 weeks pregnant today and this is probably the most fitting photo to describe my first trimester so far: hyperemesis gravidarum.

I was going to wait until I was feeling better, until I had a bump to show, until I could put some makeup on… but who knows when that will be? I’ve lost over 15lbs, been admitted to hospital twice on IV fluids for dehydration, spent my birthday (and weeks on end!) in bed and have been put on so many meds I’ve lost count.

Today, as I was leaving the hospital on new meds and after a bag of fluids - feeling like a human being for the first time in over a month - I decided that writing this post, although cathartic for me, may be just what another HG sufferer needs to read to make them feel a little bit less alone.

This is not the beautiful “surprise” pregnancy announcement we’re used to seeing, but for the 1-3% of women who suffer with HG, it may be the only one you can manage.

So, this is where I’ve been hiding. Baby is doing well, mama not so well. But I’m hanging in there and taking one day at a time!

Baby is due September 2021! ❤️

Snow day!! ☃️ We have two very excited childre Snow day!! ☃️ We have two very excited children and a puppy, ready some snow fun today! Might as well make the most of it, because this is probably all we’re going to get. Oh I do love snow! 😍❄️
“Anxiety is also feeling like you have no contro “Anxiety is also feeling like you have no control over your life and there’s a knot if your stomach. You feel like your world is crashing down around you and you’re expected to sit there and act like you’re fine.”

Yesterday was a right old day - I wasn’t myself. I needed silence to reset... but didn’t get it. So I carried on not sounding like myself, being curt, snappy, sometimes a bit hurtful.

Do you know when you just can’t snap out of it? You take a deep breath and promise you will react differently to a stressful situation, but a minute later you catch yourself spilling over before you even realise the pan was boiling.

I took some time to reflect in the evening and exposed everything that was causing me frustration, stress, anxiety and worry.  Guess what the common denominator was?

A feeling of not being in control.

I’ve always needed some sort of order and control to feel like myself and right now we’re positivity not in control of anything really, are we?

I’m glad I can recognise the triggers for my anxiety and today I made sure I established some form of control first thing in the morning to give my day the best chance to be a good one.

So I cleaned the house, I made sure the puppy had plenty of naps, I scheduled 1-2-1 time with both kids and that made me feel so much better.

I know I only tackled the consequences, not the causes of my anxiety and my need to feel in control, but that was enough for me today.

There’s - always - more work to be done, but accepting the small wins is part of it.

How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind right now? It’s so important to check in with ourselves instead of ignoring how we feel and burying our heads in housework, jobs, kids and life admin.

💫 What do I need?

That’s a good way to start. I’ll list a few things I need right now. They don’t all have to be grand things, sometimes I only need the smallest things.

1. I need to wash my hair.
2. I need silence.
3. I need to rearrange some rooms in the house (don’t know why I need this, but I really do).
4. I need to zero my inbox.
5. I need uninterrupted sleep.
6. I need a good hearty meal.
7. I need to exercise.
8. I need to smile.
9. I need to see my mum.
10. I need to put my needs first.

If I were to pick just one need right this second, I’d say number 2. I’m normally really sensitive to loud noises, but today... dear me! Even a slightly louder whisper was annoying me! 🙈
I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jeal I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jealous of this cosy situation! 😍 Oh Benji boy, you’re bringing us so much joy already! 🐶🤎
