Cleaning the Temple

A friend invited me to go and clean the Temple Tuesday night. I told her yes, that I thought that would be fun. After I got home I started doubting myself. When I feel the way I do, I don't like to go to the Temple, which is all the more reason to go. So after our alcohol and drug class with our son I came home and got ready. There were 12 people from our ward. I never knew how quiet the temple really could be. For a while it was just me and my vacuum, at one point a lady walked by me and I jumped a little.
 Did you know that there are 2 acres of carpet in the Temple? When I got home I felt like I had vacuumed all 2! But as I vacuumed I just kept praying in my head Please help me know what to do? Help me know how to deal my son. It was very peaceful. We also got to see places that we normally wouldn't, that was cool.  
Now that Josh and I both have our recommends we are trying to make it a weekly thing. We have never been that good at going. But we both enjoy how we feel when we do.
