As someone who lives in a remote place surrounded by the national forest, I don't think you would be very isolated. Seems a lot of folks have that idea.Get the garden ready, brew, reload, cook, organize the garage. If I get stir crazy I could make a run to a remote place in the national Forest to go shooting.

For 2 weeks just means I would skip going to church one week.
You can still go outside and walk the dog.I would go nuts if I had to stay inside for a couple of weeks. That's not my style.
Every day I leave the house between 6 - 7 AM (after walking the dog) and meet with some friends for coffee and breakfast for an hour or more. It would be hard to give that up.
Then the rest of the day is taken up by errands as DW can't drive anymore, and whatever comes up.
If I had to stay put for two weeks, I would probably throw out a good 50% of the stuff we have accumulated over the years. DW is somewhat of a pack rat. I've got too much stuff rat holed here and there and I am part of the problem too.
So.... Is walking the dog self isolation if you live in a neighborhood or walk a more populated location. The bulk of my social life is my daily dog walk at the beach... One of my walk buddies is a "hugger" - hugging the various friends we see each day... I've convinced her to change to being an elbow bumper for the near term. But my point is - even walking the dog is often among other people. (For the record, I'm not a hugger and could keep my 6 foot distance... ) Even in the neighborhood walks - there is usually a neighbor who wants to chat.
As for what I'd do... Probably bingewatch tv, read, and consider (but not do) various chores. Kind of like my normal days.
