 Without providing any actual code...

 You need to keep a "history" state... AND you need to use an IF/ELSE-IF
structure.

 newState = readPin()
 if lastState == closed and newState == opened:
  print opened
 elif lastState == opened and newState == closed:
  print closed
 lastState = newState

 Using two IF blocks, without an ELSE block means the second IF gets
tested even after you execute the contents of the first IF -- and the first
IF (in your code) has set the history such that the other IF triggers and
outputs...
