How do I "open" all at once 5-10 word files I work daily.

I work with/on the same 5-10 word documents a day. Most, if not all, of the
documents I write are long term reports/projects that lasts weeks or months.
Meaning I work on the same report for weeks. Some documents are just
reference/training notes that i continually refine on a daily basis or a few
times a week.

When I start windows now, I go to the most recent viewed files list (to see
what I worked on yesterday) and open each file individually. When you have
to open 10 documents, one by one, this gets tedious and repetitive (RSI...).
How can I open all 10 documents at once without automatically somehow.

Thanks in advance.

P.s., the documents are NOT in the same folder. My docs are organized
according to topic/category and for specific case files, they are organized
by case.

So, on a daily basis, I work not only on specific case files organized by
each case, but on general files organized by topic (ie., general reference,
training, law)
