Here is the trans address. Not sure what else I need. Will pay 10$ in BTC to someone to push it through.

if you paid too low fee. it will take time to get pass thru because people paid more fee than you and system is going to have priority over them.

Have you heard of transaction accelerators? You can send your transaction to miners to include in their next block usually for a fee.
I have found two of these services that are offering them for free. I haven't tried them out so I don't know if they work.

These are very cool... thank you for sharing... Does anyone have experience with either of these?  If so, what your experience?

I have attempted to accelerate your transaction through a few services. Most likely (of course if you are lucky, 24 sat/byte is fairly low) it will be confirmed in the next few blocks (probably today) the txpool is huge at the moment, so for your next tx double check your fee :)

Dude, you rock for this, good community support  ;D

Here are the most widely used accelerators (you want one attached to a decent sized pool , thats part of how this works)

OP, if you do this in the future (dont do this in the future), you will get a similar result by using one of these. Whatever wallet allowed you to do this, stop using it. Use the core client (you can adjust the fees) or a decent, well reviewed android wallet ( again, you can adjust the fees). If these fees are a result of you trying to be frugal, be lucky. At the best these take a few days to process; at the worst, your transaction will drop out of the mempool, and you will have wasted your time.

You learned a valuable lesson today :)
