Welcome to bedtime stories for everyone.

In which nothing much happens.

You feel good. And then you fall asleep.

I'm Catherine Nikolai. I write and read all the stories you'll hear on nothing much happens.

Audio engineering is by Bob Widdersheim.

We give to a different charity each week, and this week we are giving to the Alliance for the Great Lakes.

They are a nonpartisan, non working across the region to protect our most precious resource,

the fresh, clean, and natural waters of the Great Lakes.

Learn more about them in our show notes.

There is a whole team now, behind the scenes that nothing much happens.

Folks who may not know you, but care very much about you.

Care that you feel care very much about you.

Care that you feel safe and relaxed and that you get some sleep.

Your kind messages are part of our regular meetings. Really, we text them to each other just to share in all the good feelings.

You support us, give back to us just by raiding and

reviewing, listening and sharing the show, and certainly by subscribing to our premium feeds.

Find links to join, as well as our wind-down subscription box,

all in our show notes.
