Hi there,

I actually do not understand the problem you are stating. But, did you
have a look at SQLAlchemy? If you are coping a lot with SQL it really
makes your life much easier and they also provide the necessary
mechanisms for threading.

Modules should be written all lower-case separated by underscores.

Have a look at the logging module and tutorial. I don't know what is
in HomeLog.Logging, but this doesn't seem right. 

Variables defined at module level should be written all upper-case.

You do all this on the module level? These things should go into
functions with proper names or at least into a 

if __name__ == '__main__':
    pass

So, where's the problem?

# make sure not to introduce cyclic dependence here!
import home_data_store

def send (connection,DaliAdress,RequestType,Request,RequestValue):
    results = home_data_store.query_sqlite(connection, …)
    return results

So, here's a first sketch (untested):

def query():
    data = do_something()
    return data

def update(data):
    do_something_with(data)

Have you read the Python tutorial by the way?
