You can accept any payment up to the time the eviction is actually in effect.
Is the eviction actually in effect, or does it follow the writ of recovery? If it follows the writ of recovery, accept her money until Wednesday. After Wednesday, she needs to get her arrangements to "move" rolling...
do not stop the eviction process if you have already started it. If she pays all funds by Wednesday, you do have the option of stopping the eviction. (She doesn't have a family member to lend her the funds?) Her behavior indicates you need to have her leave, and soon......eviction in Ohio takes 28 days following the three day 'notice to leave premises" period.
Which is not a lot of time to find another place.

As for her stuff, check your state law, Ohio gives them seven days to claim their stuff off my front porch, or next to the garbage pickup curb. Not one has ever come back to claim their stuff following an eviction.

What is the woman's history with rent payments? Is she a chronic late payer? She doesn't understand the rent comes first?

She had no rent history as she was a homeowner before she rented and she is a middle aged professional so she appeared to be stable. I understand that in MN you have to store belongings for 28 days after eviction so on the premises would be the most convenient. This has changed from 60 days storage so I was happy to hear that.
