Apparently this is normal
I had already installed the Windows 8.1 update 1 which is numbered KB2919355 or so I thought a couple of weeks ago and now it's showing up in windows update again!
This article I found says it's normal and nothing to worry about
 
 
 
Windows 8.1 Update KB2919355 may be offered again even when you have installed it. Why?

    You would think that once it's updated to that particular update, that it would go away when detecting what you already have. Love my Win 7.       :P
