If I do feel bad it will be due to the fact that I am considering getting back into home brewing again.

This will be my third time I have gotten out of and back into the hobby. I have made the mistake of selling my gear only to buy more when I get back into it. Going to do it again, but this time I have the garage to keep the stuff in, so I will not have to fight the wife and kids for the space. Seems with the other places we have lived, as soon as I clean up a part of the house for a hobby area, it is quickly taken over by the wife and kids. They love having the space to do stuff, but none of them will take the time to keep an area clean.
