Welcome to Bedtime Stories for Everyone. in which nothing much happens. You feel good, and then you fall asleep. I'm Catherine Nicolai. I write and read all the stories you hear on Nothing Much Happens. Audio engineering is by Bob Wittersheim. We give to a different charity each week. And this week we are giving to Wishbone Pet Rescue in Douglas, Michigan. They work to protect, shelter, and rehome animals in need. Learn more about them in our show notes. Before we begin, a little reminder that we're just four days away from launching the Nothing Much Happens app. Thousands of villagers have already joined, and we can't wait to welcome you too. If you sign up before launch, you'll still save 25% off with our founder's pricing.
We'll also be celebrating together on launch day with our very first live event. I'll be sitting down with Bob Wittersheim, the wonderful producer and sound designer behind Nothing Much Happens, for a live conversation at 6 p.m. Eastern on July 9th. We'd love to have you there. Visit nothingmuchappens.com to join us. In silence, your brain can often spin into chaos. There's no guardrails to keep it in line. But a story gives you an external framework for your thoughts, which helps them settle rather than spin.
And all you have to do is listen.
I'll read our story twice, and I'll go a little slower the second time through. If you wake again in the night, don't wait to see if the spinning will resume. Just push play again, and you'll drop right back off. Our story tonight is called Out and Back. And it's a story about a calm way to cap a long summer day. It's also about hickory trees and fresh hay in the field, katydids and kickstands, and letting your senses fill with the sights and sounds around you. Being here while here is happening. People often ask me things like how books, podcasts, memberships, and online shops actually get started. And the answer is usually much less glamorous than they expect. You have an idea, you put it into the world, and then you need a way for people to support it.
And that's one of the things Shopify does so well. It removes a lot of the friction between having an idea and actually selling it. From day one, the tools are there, including checkout. So when someone is ready to buy, the process is simple and seamless. I remember how reassuring it was to know that part was already handled. customers could browse, make a purchase, come back later without having to start from scratch each time. Shopify Checkout makes the experience smooth for them, which makes it easier for you to focus on your business. And once the basics are working, your attention can shift from setting things up to actually growing what you've built. And that's where the fun begins. With Shopify, nothing stands between your idea and a real business.

So lights out, campers. Set things down. Be done with the day. Get as comfortable as you possibly can and let your whole body relax into your bed You have done enough for today. It's enough.
Take a deep breath in through your nose. Let it out your mouth. Nice. One more. Breathe in. And out.
Good. out and back.
The screen door clapped into its frame behind me as I hopped down the back porch steps and strode through the high grass to the shed.
