I'd pay off the SUV,tear down this house(50 yr old piece of junk) and build a new house with a dedicated sewing room, it would have to have a room for DH's stuff so he'd stop complaining that there's no room for him. Buy our kids some new cars and put the rest away for retirement. I like where we are now, it has enough land for our gardens, fairly quiet as its off the main highway and close to where our friends live.
