Your problem is you are combining sequential execution and repeating actions. If you do this, you need to have the repeating unit be the entire project or an action group containing all of the actions which are to repeat. You don't want the actions themselves to repeat unless you have parallel execution, such as a a parallel project or action group or a single action list. Otherwise, the first item immediately blocks everyone following it when it is completed and the new action created, as you have seen.

If these tasks need to be done sequentially, then use the repeating action group or repeating project approach. Choose the repeating project or repeating action group based on whether this collection of actions is part of a larger project, and whether the ability to review and/or manipulate as a project is important. Action groups do not show up in the stalled filter, cannot be put on hold or dropped, and cannot be independently reviewed.

If they don't need to be done sequentially, the parallel or SAL approach offers the advantage that each completed action will repeat even if you don't get the whole list finished off, and you can have different repeat intervals for different items.
