Using a database would seem to meet a lot of your needs. Don't forget that
Python comes with a sqlite database engine included, so it shouldn't take
you more than a few lines of code to open the database once and then write
out your status every few seconds.
import sqlite3
con = sqlite3.connect('status.db')
...
with con:
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute('UPDATE ...', ...)
and similar code to restore the status or create required tables on
startup.
