I believe I found the culprit!! I had a transaction that became stuck and it's still confirming with that same wallet address. Assuming this would be the cause, yes?

Yup! A child transaction cannot be confirmed without having its parents confirmed. Your transaction had a 90.96 sat/B ratio for its fee. This is a big no-no to get transactions confirmed these days. It's not too late to fix things though, there are steps you can take! Your first step before re-broadcasting your 0.5 transactions is to get this one fixed up.

Or look for help from more veteran users here on the forum. I assume a more sophisticated reply will follow mine
