Maybe ask her if she thinks a roomba type vacuum would be useful. I bought a knockoff one about 2 years ago and it works great, super helpful to me. It doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles but it vacuums well and that’s what is important to me. My partner is not a help big with house work and I was feeling like a maid sometimes. He is fantastic otherwise so I decided to find ways to simplify things for myself instead of letting resentment build up. I also bought a countertop dishwasher and it has been a lifesaver, since I cook a lot. And if you don’t have one yet, look into getting an airfryer. These 3 items were worth every penny since they save me about 3-4 hours daily between cooking and cleaning

Blackout / rechargeable light bulbs. I have some and they work as regular bulbs until there’s an outage - then they provide light for up to 8 hours and they still respond to the light switch as usual. I have them strategically placed around the house and have bought a bunch for elderly family members and friends
