You could get a sample of oil analyzed - they'll tell you if you could have gone longer. Sometimes parked outside on cold nights will put more moisture into the crankcase. Sometimes not, so a simple rule of "6-months" doesn't always fit everyone.
All very short drives will leave more gasoline dissolved in the oil. Long drives where the car warms up completely, then storage for 2 weeks at a time might give the same total miles per year but that's not as hard on the oil.
