[BlindTlk] getting my own milk

You could also place a tray on the counter to catch any potential spills. 

Cordially,

Subject: [BlindTlk] getting my own milk

Hi all,
For Christmas Mom got me this pump thing that goes on the jugs of milk but I
like the taste of the milk in the cartons way better (it's actually does
taste different so I'm not crazy; it's something to do with the wax coating
on the
cartons) so I never wanted the thing in the first place but didn't have the
nerve to tell her when she first told me about it a couple of months before
Christmas. I find it hard holding the cup up to the pump especially as it
gets fuller but pouring from the carton has resulted in several spillages
including a couple that have resulted in milk running all down the cupboards
and onto the floor. Mom gets really mad when this happens and today she said
that we're going back to the jugs but I told her that if I'm doing it then I
can use what I want; even sighted people make messes and I'd think that most
visually impaired people pour things from cartons and don't need a fancy
gadget to help them get a drink.
What do you think I should do? I'm in a really bad mood about this so I
really need help and to vent. Thanks for reading, Madison
