The news about the shared fence had instantly perked up David. "Fantastic, Martha!" he'd enthused, a broad grin spreading across his face. It was just the thing he needed, a project to channel his pent-up energy.

He leaped out of his chair, the feeling of the sudden action causing his chest to swell. He rushed to his workshop, his mind already reeling with designs. He wanted something distinctive, something that would set his yard apart.

He spent the afternoon sketching, his fingers moving furiously across the page. The designs grew more elaborate, more intricate. He imagined the feel of the wood beneath his hands, the satisfying heft of the tools.

The very air seemed to crackle with anticipation. He chose a design featuring panels of interwoven wood and decorative carvings. He could picture the finished fence, a testament to his creativity and skill. He grabbed his saw and took a deep breath.
