Org mode: Chaning "DONE" to "TODO" automatically for repeating tasks

I want to schedule a task that is marked as TODO and something that repeats every day. I have scheduled this task with +1d.

When I am done with this task for today, I change it to DONE and then put down some notes with it.

But now this tasks appears as DONE in the agenda for the next day also.

Is there a way to make org-mode automatically change DONE to TODO for the next day?

Upon completion (via C-c C-t d), the task must return to TODO or some other state you define:

;; TODO state to which a repeater should return the repeating task.
(setq org-todo-repeat-to-state "TODO")

Depending on your configuration (see org-treat-S-cursor-todo-selection-as-state-change), it's possible it won't work if you change TODO keywords with the S-arrows.
