Two things I'll never do, unless I hit the 100M lottery of course, is have an in ground pool and own a boat. Much for the same reason, except that those two are constant work. Had the discussion of renting vs owning a boat with neighbor last week. My logic prevailed...
MB, as you are packing books, open the front, read the preface and forward - you'll know if you want to keep or send it on its way... unless they all start becoming 'keeps'. Then it's a coin flip. If they are fiction, toss a coin, if they are non-fiction, make a decision. Keep doing that until you have one box of books you really want to keep.
Well, I should have gone and finished painting the landscape a couple weeks ago. Now that my "break" is over, it looks like rain for weeks...
Still plenty to keep me busy.
