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 hear on Nothing Much Happens.

Audio Engineering is by Bob Wittersheim.

We are bringing you an encore episode tonight, meaning that this story originally aired at some point in the past.

It could have been recorded with different equipment in a different location.

And since I'm a person and not a computer,

I sometimes sound just slightly different.

But the stories are always soothing and family-friendly, and our

wishes for you are always deep rest and sweet dreams. Now, sleep should be easy. I can help.

I'm going to tell you a simple, low-stake story,

full of relaxing details.

All you have to do is listen.

Rest your mind on the sound of my voice. And it will work like a lullaby. Before you know it,

you'll be waking up tomorrow, feeling rested. I'll tell the story twice, and I'll go a little

slower in the second time through.

If you wake in the night, you could turn the story right back on or just think through any of the

details you can remember. Now, it's time to turn out the light and set down your stuff. Maybe this is a moment

you've been waiting for all day to slide down into your sheets and know that nothing more is needed from you.
