Welcome to bedtime stories for everyone in which nothing much happens.

You feel good and then you fall asleep.

I'm Catherine Nicolai.

I read and write all the stories you hear on nothing much happens with audio engineering

by Bob Wittersheim.

We give to a different charity each week.

This week we are giving to the International Rescue Committee whose purpose is to help people

whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster, including the climate

crisis to survive, recover and gain control over their future.

If you'd like to join us in giving, we have a link to them in our show notes.

And if you need more, nothing much in your life, head to nothingwhatchappens.com where

you can find links to our beautiful illustrated book, bonus content and our very caring social

media communities.

Now, busy minds need a place to rest.

Without some framework, some structure for your thoughts, they're likely to run wild

and without stop.

So just listen to the sound of my voice and follow along with the general shape of this

story.

And before you know it, you'll be fast asleep.

I'll tell the story twice and I'll go a little slower the second time through.

If you wake later and feel your thoughts begin to race again.

Listen again or just think your way back through any part of the story that you can remember.
