Amathiphu ayi-10 alula okugcina ikhaya lakho liphephile emazinyaneni

Ingabe uke wathola ikati? Kubalulekile ukugcina ikhaya lakho liphephile ukuze umngane wakho omusha onoboya angakulumi, adle, noma anwaye noma yini engahlosiwe. Uma uthola ikati elidala, cishe lizobe lincane kabi, kodwa kunoma yikuphi, kuyadingeka ukunikeza izindlela zokuvikela ifenisha kumqashi onjalo. Nawa amanye amathiphu okugcina ikhaya lakho liphephile lapho ikati noma ikati lifika.

1. Bathanda ukuthinta nokuhlafuna.

Amakati ayafana ngezindlela eziningi nezingane zethu: afunda ngezwe eliwazungezile ngamehlo, izandla (okungukuthi, ngezidladla) nangomlomo. Kungakhathaliseki ubudala bawo, amakati ayizilwane ezidlalayo ezinothando lwangaphakathi lokubamba yonke into ezungezile futhi zidlale nganoma yini angayithola phansi. Lokhu kwakamuva kubaluleke kakhulu: ucabanga ukuthi iphansi lihlanzekile, kodwa uma ufika phansi, cishe uzothola izinto ezingaba inkinga kumntwana wakho.

Nakhu okufanele ukubheke futhi ukususe ngaphansi kosofa namashalofu ngaphambi kokuletha ikati ekhaya:

• Imicu.
• Izintambo
• I-Scrunchy.
• Amaribhoni.
• Amabhendi enjoloba okubhala.
• Izikhwama zepulasitiki.
• Izinto zokuthunga.
• Izimpahla zikadoli/amathoyizi.
• Imininingwane emincane evela emidlalweni yebhodi.
• Izihlungi

Ikati lingathola kalula futhi ligwinye izinto ezihlakazekile, futhi ziningi ezinye izinto endlini yakho elizozama ukuzihlafuna, kuhlanganise nezintambo. Cisha noma yiziphi izintambo ezingakwazi ukususwa lapho ingane yakho ifinyelela kuyo, ngisho noma ihlale isetshenziselwa amadivayisi adinga ukuhanjiswa nazo. Uma usebenzisa izinto zasendlini njengensimbi okwesikhashana, intambo yayo elengayo ingaba isilingo ekatini. Angase acabange ukuthi intambo ingadlalwa, kodwa uma ewisa insimbi ebhodini loku-ayina, angase alimale kabi.

Ngaphezu kwezintambo zikagesi nezintambo, udinga futhi ukuvikela izintambo zocingo, othayi bamakhethini, nezintambo ezingaboni ezibonakala ziphephile kuphela. Gcina lezi zinto engqondweni njengoba ulungiselela ukwenza ikati lakho lasekhaya liphephe!

2. Akuzona zonke izitshalo eziwusizo.

Izitshalo zasendlini zengeza izilwane zasendle kancane ekhaya lakho, kodwa qaphela ngokuvumela ikati lakho eduze kwazo. I-Philodendron, iminduze, i-mistletoe kanye ne-spurge ingenye yezinto eziningi izitshalo zasendlini ezinobuthi, okuthi, ngokuthintana njalo, kungabangela ukugula okukhulu emvuthulweni yakho. Iminduze, ama-azalea, nama-daffodils yizitshalo zasengadini ezivamile ezibuye zibe nobuthi kumakati. Kubalulekile ukuhlola futhi uqinisekise ukuthi noma yiziphi izimbali ezisikiwe oza nazo ekhaya lakho ziphephile ezinganeni ezinendlebe.

3. Vala isivalo sendlu yangasese.

Amakati namakati ahlale ebheke amanzi okuphuza emini. Indawo efinyeleleka kakhulu yindlu yangasese endlini yokugezela. Kuyasinyanyisa, kodwa akusiwo wonke amakati ahlabayo, futhi uma efuna ukuphuza, ahlala ekhona lapho. Ngakho qiniseka ukuthi usigcina sivaliwe isivalo sendlu yangasese lapho unekati endlini yakho. Phela, uma ungakwenzi lokhu, umngane wakho onoboya usengozini yokuwela lapho futhi agwilize. Ingabe ezinye izivalo zivaliwe endlini yakho? Amathini kadoti, imishini yokuwasha, iwasha kanye nesomisi. Awufuni ikati lakho liwele ogibeni futhi lingakwazi ukuphuma.

4. Izindawo ezishisayo aziphephile.

Noma amakati ethanda ukufudumala, udinga ukwenza isiqiniseko sokuthi lezi zindawo zokunethezeka ziphephile. Uma ukushisa kuvela eziko noma esitofini sezinkuni, yazisa ikati ukuthi kungcono ukungalali kulezi zindawo ezifudumele. Uma kunesidingo, yenza kube nzima ngekati ukuthi lifinyelele kulezi zindawo ngokuhambisa izinto eligibela kuzo ukuze lifike ekushiseni, noma ulivuse ngemva kwesikhashana. Ekugcineni, qiniseka ukuthi zonke izifudumezi zokulandelela azixhunyiwe futhi zigcinwe kahle uma zingasebenzi. Uma exhunyiwe, hlala uqapha ama-heaters ukuze umndeni wakho uvikeleke ekushiseni ngokweqile.

5. Vikela ifenisha yakho ezinziphoni zekati.

Amakati namakati ayakuthanda ukunwaya, kodwa awazi ukuthi akufanele akhiphe izinzipho zawo uze uwafundise. Izinhloso ezilula kakhulu zezinzipho zomncane wakho yifenisha enkulu efana nosofa noma amatafula. Okhaphethi nezitebhisi ezinokhaphethi nakho kungathinteka.

Lapho uzama ukuvikela ifenisha ekatini elisendlini yakho, ungacabangi nje kuphela ngalokho ingane yakho engase ikunwaye ngayo, kodwa futhi nangezinto engakwazi ukugibela kuzo: amakhethini, izindwangu zamatafula ezinde, noma amashalofu ezincwadi. Esikhundleni salezi zinto, bonisa izinyane lekati isigxobo sokuklwebha noma isihlahla sekati esingaklwejwa, ukuze sazi kahle ukuthi yiziphi izinto ezingezakhe.

6. Nakekela ukungafinyeleleki kwezindawo ezingavunyelwe ikati.

Amakati anelukuluku lokwazi ngokwemvelo, ngakho-ke ikhabethe elivaliwe alisho ukuthi isilwane sakho ngeke sifune ukungena. Cabangela ukuthenga amalokha amakhabethe aphethe imikhiqizo yokuhlanza noma imithi. Lezi zinto zingagcinwa eshalofini eliphezulu lekhabethe ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi azifinyeleleki.

Khumbula ukuthi ikati lakho lingakhuphukela lapho futhi, ngakho umnyango wekhabethe nawo kufanele uvalwe.

Uma kunekamelo elikhethekile ingane yekati engavunyelwe ukungena kuyo, hlala ivaliwe. Izithiyo zezingane nezinja ngeke zivimbe ikati, i-Mother Nature Network ethi lingagxuma ngokuphindwe kahlanu ubude balo. Zonke izinto eziyisikhumbuzo ezibaluleke kakhulu kuwena nomndeni wakho kufanele zivalelwe noma zifihlwe. Ingabe uthole i-vase - i-heirloom ekhethekile evela esihlotsheni esikude? Isonge ukuze igcinwe futhi uyibeke kude kuze kube yilapho izilwane ezifuywayo sezikhulile ngokwanele ukuba zihambe ngokuphepha eduze kwezinto ezinjalo.

7. Hlola izikhala ezincane.

Amakati athanda ukuhlala ezindaweni ezincane ezifudumele. Isibonelo, ngaphambi kokuvala umnyango wokomisa, qiniseka ukuthi ingane yakho ayisheleli ukuze ithathe isihlwathi. Okufanayo kuya nakwezinye izindawo ezithule njengamadrowa okugqoka, obhasikidi be-pantry, amafriji namafriji.

8. Namathisela wonke amanetha omiyane emafasiteleni.

Amakati ayakuthanda ukufudumala kwelanga futhi azogoqa emafasiteleni ukuze athole imfudumalo yemvelo eningi ngangokunokwenzeka. Ukuze uqinisekise ukuphepha kwekati lakho ekhaya lakho, hlola zonke izikrini emafasiteleni nasezicabheni, ngisho noma kusebusika ngaphandle. Futhi, ungakhohlwa ngakho entwasahlobo noma ehlobo lapho kitten isivele ijwayele indawo yayo. Uma inetha lixega, angase abe sengozini. Ukuze uthole ukuvikelwa okwengeziwe, thenga amanethi omiyane akhethekile alwa nekati kanye namakhethini afanayo. Amanetha anjalo omiyane awagcini nje ngokuphephile, kodwa futhi ahlala isikhathi eside kakhulu kunejwayelekile, njengoba ehlala isikhathi eside.

9. Thenga amathoyizi akhe awathandayo.

Uma isilwane sakho simatasatasa isikhathi eside, mancane amathuba okuba nesimo esiyingozi. Amakati ayakuthanda ukudlala, ngakho-ke ungasheleli amathoyizi ikati lakho elingadlala ngawo lapho livuka. Impela uzowathanda amagundane namabhola anezinsimbi ezinomsindo owanele ukuze akwazise ukuthi ukuphi emini. Zilungiselele ukuthi umntwana uzodlala nawe noma alale emathangeni akho.

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi wamukela ikati noma ikati elidala nelihlakaniphile, kuyoba nzima ukuba bafunde ngokushesha yonke imithetho yendlu. Ikati lingase libaleke izintambo noma izinto ezihlakazekile phansi, kodwa liyakujabulela ukugibela amakhethini noma ukugxumela emashalofini. Angase ahone ngokudelela ebheke endishini yakhe futhi aphuze kusinki. Ukulungiswa kwekhaya elisha kufanele kube bushelelezi, kuqale kumshiye endaweni encane elungele ikati ngenkathi efunda, bese kumngenisa kancane kancane endlini aze ajwayelane nemithetho. Uma umvumela ukuthi azulazule endlini futhi ahlole izindawo ezintsha, qiniseka ukuthi umbhekile.

Uma ekhangwa izindawo okungenzeka azimfanelekeli noma eziyingozi kuye, thatha izinyathelo zokuphepha ezidingekayo ukuze uqinisekise ukuphepha kwakhe. Ukwakha indawo ephephile, kubalulekile ukulungisa ikati ngobumnene nangokuzola.

Okokugcina, ungalokothi ujezise izinyane lekati noma ikati ngokungaziphathi kahle. Basafunda imithetho yendlu yakho futhi musa ukubamba ngekhanda yonke into ngesikhathi esisodwa. Ukujezisa kungenza izinto zibe zimbi nakakhulu, kubangele isilwane esifuywayo sishube futhi sesabe. Ukuqeqeshwa okufanele kanye nemivuzo yokuziphatha okuhle kuyomsiza aqonde ukuthi yini engenziwa nengeke yenziwe. Uma uqaphela ukuthi isiqala ukuba nenkani, vele umkhombe amathoyizi noma iposi eliklwebhayo. Isilwane sakho esifuywayo siyafunda futhi silindele ukuthi usiqondise.
