Hollywood star Ben Affleck is reportedly trying to quit smoking by getting himself involved in household work.
The 'Argo' director, 41, is keeping himself occupied with domestic chores in a bid to cure his nicotine addiction on the persistence of his wife Jennifer Garner, with whom he has daughters Violet, Seraphina, and son Samuel, reported Contactmusic.
"Ben's promised to ditch the butts again, but now he's just a bundle of nervous energy and is doing anything to keep his mind off cigarettes. He comes up with all sorts of household projects to stay busy," a source said.
"Ben decided he needed to keep his hands busy, so he built a bookshelf for the girls' playroom. It would up comically lopsided, with the books tumbling off of it," the source added.
