I’d take all the food/supplies out of my basement and kitchen up to my attic that has pull down stairs. I’d also fill up all my sinks, bathtubs, buckets, bottles, cups, and anything that else that can hold water. I’d fortify my doors and windows too, but spend most of my time in the attic, especially during the initial panic, and be as quiet as possible and not use any lights that could be seen from the outside. I’d listen to the radio a lot initially to hear about what’s going on, then I’d keep it off and check it every so often to conserve batteries (I need to buy a couple of those emergency hand crank powered radio and a few flashlights actually lol). And if the situation lasts longer than my supplies, I’d start quietly looting the surrounding empty houses, working farther and farther out as the situation permits. I’d assume all of the stores have been looted for all of the obvious stuff, but maybe there will still be edible items left behind like pet food. For a weapon I’d carry a machete, an aluminum baseball bat, and a variety of knives and long sharpened screwdrivers to stab through the eyes and ears to reach their brains quickly and quietly. I’d also make some lightweight spears out of sharpened broom handles, or by attaching sharp metal to wooden tool handles. And once I was low on supplies, but still had enough to load up backpacks/dufflebags with food/water I’d start my journey on bicycle toward wherever the radio said was a safe haven, if there were any, hopefully being able to make radio contact with them first to ensure it’s still safe and to let them know I’m coming and determine how to get inside safely without being attacked/eaten or leading the zombies to a weak point in their defenses. If there wasn’t any safe haven area, I’d go for a remote large body of water/river to use as a food/water source and make a hidden treehouse for shelter, maybe even locate a small island that I could live on. Lol wow I really put some thought into this.
