Since the pandemic Ive been slowing building up a small homeland with some Cisco switches, a small cluster of dell optiplex 5070 micros for proxmox and a custom built dual socket server for hosting NAS and hosting most of my windows VMs.

I don't know what to do with it anymore I haven't turned on my lab on months. I have had 0 motivation to use it or mess with configs on it.

Should I call it and begin wiping drives and selling it?

Just wait .. everyone has that episodes where you don't want to tinker around... mine was off for 6 months and recently I got back at it. So rebuilt everything with automation in focus , spinning / stopping VMs via email , every dhcp lease gets an A record on my DNS server and such jazz .. and lastly implemented Authentik so that every service uses oauth where possible.

Just wait a little .. because when you want to start over and sell everything , you'll need to buy stuff again
