Default transmission question

Ok heres the deal. About two weeks ago or so my trans slipped real bad when shifting from first to second under moderate acceleration and WOT. Ok, that lasted two day. Shifted fine under normal throttle getting up to speed, but at WOT it would slip. After those two days of doing that, it has been shifting fine ever since, even under WOT. It shifts firm and positive whether light or heavy throttle, and wot downshifts. No more slipping. Any ideas on whats going on?

LOL, I didnt realize I put it here.. Trans has been shifting fine, fluid looks fine, smells fine, nothing out of the ordinary after those couple days.I really dont know, I think it was confused like I was when I posted in the ford section.

Thanks for moving it. No, temps were fine. The first time it did it, it was cold, I was maybe a mile from my house on flat road. The same day about 20 miles away I tried a WOT run and it did it again, temp was probably 180-190. In the summer here, mine has always ran 200-210 so it wasnt all the way to temp yet. The next day it felt weird again and wasnt shifting normal. The day after that I let someone use it to go to the lumber yard, but I did prewarn them of the trans problem. When they returned they said it did alright and didnt slip. It hasnt slipped since, I have done numerous WOT runs, brake stands, etc. Its weird, I am guessing just a computer glitch.
