If your IP address doesn't change every day but only every now and then then 
yes, it's definitely a useful relay.

Should the IP address change too often, your relay might loose its "guard" or 
even "stable" flag but I recommend you just see what will happen.

I have a relay (6B185DEEB249E4BA6182ECA077530C45E98A6C5F) that's also just 
running at home with a dynamic IP address and it still has its "Stable" flag.
