Thanks for all the responses. They have caused me to rethink a couple of things already.
Sqlite is a holdover from thinking about a .Net version of this app. I just need to persist my data. Something like Magma should be fine. I had been looking at Sqlite as an embedded database since I didn't need (or don't want to make the user manage) a database server. I ran the UIThemes examples and I like the look. But I might just use the browser and a local Seaside server to give me a chance to learn more about web programming. It doesn't have to be a desktop app but my wife, who is has a problem to be solved and is my customer, says she would not put the data on the web. I will consider if some of the less personal data could be web-based (and then more universally accessible) and some data restricted to local storage. A hybrid if you will. I have to admit that I stretched a little bit when I said "I am a Java & .Net application programmer", "was" is almost more correct now. Like so many, I do more project management now and really miss the coding. I've been reading "The Passionate Programmer" and I'm following his advice to learn something very different from what I know now. Thanks again. Now off to review some of the things you have brought to my attention.
