I got some donations delivered. I had some stainless steel scouring pads. I went to Lowe's and bought some Gorilla Tape. Stuffed a hole in the brick wall outside around a pipe where mice could get in. Then covered the whole thing with Gorilla Tape.
Tried to go thru some more stuff in the foyer. I couldn't make any decisions; just kept picking things up, moving them around, setting them down someplace else. Decision fatigue has kicked in.

Danny, sounds like it's time to switch to something else, either another category entirely or maybe something like paper--do you have a paper hoard to go through too? Or just take a day off from sorting!
So, it seems the neighbors next door all left the house (at least, all three of their cars were gone) and left all three of their dogs outside, including the very senior Pug. I felt so bad for them. My dog sounded like she wanted to go out a couple of hours ago so I had to take her out to the front lawn, where she did nothing. So we came back in, and finally someone came home and brought their dogs inside. So we just went out, yes she had to go, and we had a scary moment coming back up the steps because I was picking up the poop and she hurried to the porch to go back up before I could put her harness back on. Luckily I got right up behind her because her back leg slipped and went through the opening between the steps. I was able to grab her and hoist her back up on her feet but she felt like she weighed more than 62 pounds while I was doing it. She's fine, I was more rattled by it than she was.
I can't believe that people leave their precious dogs outside while they go away somewhere--they don't even have a lock on their gate!
I think I forgot to mention that I ended up going over the library this morning to drop my overdue book into the drop slot--I realized that they don't open til noon on Sunday so they might count it as returned yesterday and I might not even have to pay 10 cents! I wanted to go this morning since the dog was okay, this way I can stay home tomorrow in preparation for a possible shopping trip on Tuesday. By then the rain will be over but it'll still be in the 50s. Plus if the dog has another good morning tomorrow I will know she's okay and won't mind leaving her alone.
Next I'm going to go through my old keybox that I found in the porch room dresser. This has all the old key tags from my dog walking days, a few with keys still attached that I didn't get a chance to return, and whose people told me to just discard them. I also have three sets of my old condo keys that for some reason I resisted throwing out. It's been long enough now, I can collect all the old keys and put them in metal recycling.

I just posted in the challenge thread, and now I will post in 2023 items.
After that I'm going to cut up and steam some more zucchini from the garden so I can have some for dinner, and that will be it for me for today.
