Edit: and how deep is the water on GAF? Maybe that's my problem, I was using 3 deep ponds but maybe that's not considered an "ocean"
Easiest just to show you a screenshot, so...

I don't understand!!? Why so much digging?

I felt like I might start to get tired of the game after 25 hours in a little over a week but now that I'm carving out a place for a new house I'm hooked all over again.
this house is gonna be ten times better than the last one, though, it's underwater!
Yeah, this game has its claws in you now. After you finish that house, you'll decide you want a quick route to hell, so that's another big digging project. Then you'll start thinking "I really don't like all my NPCs bunched up like this" and start building them individual houses. Then you'll say "Wow, there's a new patch out that doesn't retroactively affect my world, I need to build a new, bigger fortress in a new world!" and before you know it you're looking at shit like this...
...and wondering why anyone would think
ten measly dollars is somehow asking too much for this.

My main two problems though is that I seem to run out of storage space fast and I have a really hard time finding any iron. Any helpful advises would be great.
Harlan already gave you the best advice on finding Iron. Be thankful it sparkles now (it didn't) and when you start looking for Silver, it's white and bright instead of looking almost identical to regular stone (it didn't).
As for storage space, most of us have gone ahead and made our first world (on the list, I'm actually on my .... third new world?) a "Home World" with no purpose other than to build, save and store. I have individual, themed towers and fortresses for my loot; metals go in the smithing tower, weapons and armor in the armory, alchemy and accessories in the 'mage's tower', etc. Even WITH all of that individual, organized storage, here's my warehouse;
I save *everything*, which has been nice the last few days since I've had all sorts of goodies to give to new players. The nine chests on the bottom right are almost entirely building materials (and I have a big structure with full stacks of every brick type too).
To save on chests, empty any of them that you find and smash them with a hammer... bam, free chest.

Since there is so many things to create and so much more armor and weapons to make I can see myself playing this for a LONG time.
Don't forget that they patch pretty frequently (well, compared to, say, MMOs)... the last patch added the entire alchemy system and a few odds and ends; over 50 items in total. The next patch (1.0.6) will be fairly small, but they've given a few tidbits on the 1.1 patch and it's supposedly going to be HUGE.
