After two months in office, Kamala Harris is still living out of suitcases -- and she's getting frustrated with it

(CNN) - It has been more than two months since Kamala Harris was sworn in as vice president of the United States, a historic moment for the country, as Harris is the first woman and the first woman of color to hold the second highest office in the land. Yet, Harris -- along with her husband, Georgetown Law professor Douglas Emhoff -- is still, ostensibly, living out of suitcases, unable to move into the private residence reserved for the vice president because it's still undergoing renovations.

It's unclear why the renovations are taking so long, said one administration official, but it's a situation that has left Harris increasingly and understandably bothered, according to several people who spoke to CNN about her situation. "She is getting frustrated," said another administration official, noting with each passing day the desire to move in to her designated house -- a stately, turreted mansion two-and-a-half miles from the White House -- grows more intense.

The second couple continues to live in temporary housing at Blair House, the President's official guest quarters, just across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House.

The administration has provided no official explanation for the delay, and a spokesperson for Harris did not respond to CNN's request for comment.

I figured it was typical Politico or The Hill bullshit, but no, CNN bullshit.

10. Some people are saying......

They're making her sound like a diva. I expect this crap from Fox not CNN.

4. I doubt she is frustrated.

I assume her temporary lodgings are very nice and close to her job. She doesn’t appear to be a fragile flower. But I bet she is anxious to get into her permanent residence for the next few years because it’s difficult to get organized in temporary lodgings.

7. They have children, too.

They are probably ready for some stability.

I hope the renovations include an impenetrable 'Insurrection Room' (i.e. panic room) with all modern day electronics and secure communications.
