What does sudden onset (i didn't have them a couple of hours ago) of 2 swollen lymphnodes in neck mean? both under 1cm, not painful, not soft/movable

Neck nodes: Swollen lymph nodes usually means that your body is processing information such as illness like a cold or allergies. It may be that they have come up slowly over time but it seems sudden to you because she just now noticed them. Have you had a recent runny nose, cough, sinus congestion, or something like that? If so, this is the most likely explanation. Unless your immune system is running low forsome reason I recommend giving it some time
