Need help on transmission diagnosis

No noticeable symptoms until today. Drove to Harbor Freight and all was fine. Got back out and went to back out of my parking space and noticed the first strange effect. Car just stopped while going in reverse. Gave it a little gas and is started moving again. Shifted into "3" and the car moved but was sluggish and the RPMs were high. Felt a little like it was starting in second gear. Continued to happen at every stop on the way home. Also, I never felt the car upshift. I may have missed it but I got it up to a good speed and let off the throttle and nothing would change, gear-wise, that I could tell. Checked the fluid and it is a very light and clean pink and the level seems good. There are no noticeable leaks that I can see. Looks clean underneath.
