Here is the link to MyTabs should OP want to check it out: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mytabs-browser-tab-manage/mlbdfdoalijmfolfecgofiajombemecf
Upon reading your post again, I realized your issue isn't even with recovering previous bookmarks. I apologize for that. I'd also like to add that MyTabs isn't just for short term preservation of tabs. You can use it to store and manage any tab/webpage url over the long term.
Your issue is with going through all of the bookmarks that you have saved. Although I believe MyTabs can serve you better in terms of ease of use and user-friendliness, we haven't rolled out our planned snooze/schedule feature yet. For that Spekulatius' recommendation of an extension that allows you to set a timer for pages to open automatically would be a good solution.
One below, from spekulatius is for firefox. Here is the one I found for chrome:

If you would like something that reminds you automatically without you having to set a time, let me know. We can discuss what that might look like and maybe I can build it.
Thanks
