Other than walking the dogs, shoveling, snowshoeing, and feeding/ breaking ice for the chickens, and hauling wood..... more than 2 weeks I didn't move my jeep. I also quit smoking on purpose at the time, and didn't want to see anyone.

I always had a freezer and full panty, so that happened pretty often in winter.

The longest time in recent memory was for two days in February, when I was snowed in and unable to go to work.

I work out of my house. In the winter months I regularly am home for 6-7 days at a time. I was out today. It had been 4-5 days since I was out last.

I've been snowed in for a week before.

Recently, I was home for 4 days nonstop: I was repairing and re-painting the living room walls.

Does walking the dog count? And what kind of record are we going for? Reclusiveness?

I hated the cold.

Other than an illness, I rarely spend an entire day in my house and almost never, two days. I like to get up and about if even just a quick run to a store such as to Lowe's today.

Close to a week in January of this year after getting my wisdom teeth removed. I went outside for a few minutes on one of the days cuz being trapped inside was driving me nuts and I needed fresh air but didn't go much further past my front yard.
