Default transmission slip?

I have a 00 and the transmission started slipping the other day. I was wondering if it means that it could be going out or if it might be something else?

Your throttle position sensor may also be suspect. Is your idle rough at all? And also wondering what level, what color and how your tranny fluid smells.

A little lower than max, and its a pinkish color. The idle is a tad bit of, not to where you can see it in the gauge but I can feel it but when the heat is on it doesn't do it. And during the summer if I was sitting in traffic longer than 5 minutes the temp would go over 210

And it also has 193000 miles, which I know isn't a lot for a jeep

The picture is about an hour after I got to work this morning. I don't know much about transmission, so I just hope its not going out, any help will be great. Thanks
