Day 2 Celestina

When Celestina is making her thread for Melibea, a different side of her shows. She seems so nervous and anxious. Celestina did not initially strike me as someone who second guesses herself. She was always so confident in herself, positive that she's right and even mocking those who doubt her word. (In the case of Parmeno). But her lack of confidence says that she is lacking her own abilities. She says later on to Melibea that being old isn't that great. Perhaps she lacks her abilities because of her old age. She also sees the danger in messing with the lives of noblemen. She's also blinded by her own greed. She feels that she can't back out of the situation that she's in because of the economic loss that would result.
