in Caring For a Spouse or Partner

After a year of not doing much of anything DW has suddenly gone on a cleaning spree. sorting through her piles of stuff, throwing stuff away, vacuuming and dusting. I don't know what to think.

    My DH has been doing the same thing. I also would like to know what it means.

    I'd be vigilant about what might get thrown away. More than that is probably hard to judge. But my partner loved to vacuum, she would do it daily while saying "I haven't vacuumed in weeks."

    Think you should send her over here! 😁

    I agree that you should check over things she is throwing away. But it sounds like she is getting some good exercise.
