DW is Darling or Dear Wife, and DH is Darling or Dear Husband, but there are probably some wives and husbands that have other ideas on what the D stands for.

Text Messaging, Chat Abbreviations and Smiley Faces - Webopedia

This should help.

While not complete, (there are a few RV specific abbreviations not listed), it should give you a start.

A few I use all the time:

IMO - In My Opinion
IMHO - In My Honest Opinion
YRMD - Your Results May Differ

HWH should just be WH for water heater, don't know why a lot of people call them hot water heaters, as they only heat cold water.
